👩‍👧 Family Devotional — Day 3

“Led by the Spirit of Truth”

📖 “When He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth…”
—John 16:13a (NKJV)


In a world full of confusion and shifting values, how can we raise our children to know what’s true?

Jesus answered that question the night before He went to the cross: He promised to send the Spirit of truth—the Holy Spirit—to guide His people into all truth.

The Holy Spirit is not distant or mysterious. He’s present, personal, and powerful. He helps us understand Scripture, points our hearts toward Christ, and even alerts us when something isn’t right. As mothers, we can lean into His guidance not only for ourselves, but for our families.

When we’re unsure how to answer questions, discipline in love, or respond to a crisis, the Spirit of truth is there to help. He brings clarity to chaos, peace in parenting, and conviction when we need realignment.

Teaching our children about the Holy Spirit invites them into a lifelong friendship with the God who leads, teaches, and comforts.


Family Reflection:

  • Do we talk about the Holy Spirit in our home?
  • How can we make room for Him to lead our family conversations and decisions?

Prayer:
Holy Spirit, we welcome You. Lead our family into truth, even when it’s hard. Help us speak honestly, live humbly, and walk closely with Jesus every day. Amen.
