Don’t Kill the Spark
“Do not quench the Spirit.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:19 (NASB 1995)
You were meant to burn bright for Christ—but ignoring the Holy Spirit is like dousing your soul’s fire with cold water.
It starts small: compromise, distraction, delay. Over time, the flame flickers out.
Paul says, “Do not quench the Spirit.” Don’t silence Him when He calls you to pray. Don’t scroll past conviction. Don’t make excuses when you’re nudged to speak truth or show kindness.
Let the fire grow.
Challenge:
Take 5 quiet minutes today to ask, “Holy Spirit, have I been ignoring You?” Then listen.
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, reignite my heart. I want to burn for You again. Don’t let me push You away. Lead me, speak to me, grow me. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
