SOAP - 1 Samuel 14; 1 Chronicles 4; 2 Corinthians 13

(S)cripture-
2 Cor 13:14 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

(O)bservation-
It is important to remember and acknowledge the Trinity - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Our Lord exists in these three Persons and it is a delightful mystery that cannot be explained or understood in terms of human rationalization. Rather, as Christians we experience and know each of these person in a special way through reading of the Scriptures, prayer, worship, and fellowship.

(A)pplication-
I want to know more deeply each of the three Persons of the Lord. I have been a Christian my whole life and have mostly known God and Jesus, but the Holy Spirit has been mysterious and relatively unknown to me. Only in the last few months, after a meeting with a pastor at church, have I really started to know more who the Holy Spirit is and that I can fellowship with Him. This is an exciting time in my life as I come to know Him more and more.

(P)rayer-
Father, You are so amazing. You desire for us to know You more and I pray with all my heart and soul that I will be able to do that - to know You just a little better and reflect more of who You are every day. Thank You for the Holy Trinity - for each of Your Persons who show us grace, love, and fellowship and may we as believers be able to know You better as we carry out Your plan on this earth until we are called home to You. I love and praise You and pray these things in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
