Steps toward holiness

"Trust that God will bless even small, simple steps and make them fruitful. Remember, God loves to reveal himself to us. He is so eager that he will take any opportunity we give him and use it to bring us closer to him.

When we allow the Holy Spirit to form us, people notice. No matter our circumstance, we begin to bear the fruit of the Spirit, and that fruit has the power to affect the people around us.

We become more cheerful and free-spirited because we know that our lives are in God's hands. We become less concerned for ourselves and more concerned for other people because we are convinced that God is looking out for us." 
~ Taken from "Portraits of Holiness", a feature article in "The Word Among Us" Jan 2018 issue

These quotes, although pulled from the same article but with much more content in between them, seem to express exactly where I am on my spiritual journey towards holiness.
Thank you, Lord.
