S – Don’t you yourselves know that you are God’s temple and that the Spirit of God lives in you?

1 Corinthians 3:16 CSB

O – This had a collective and individual meaning.  Paul wanted the Corinthian Christians to recognize that they were the church, not a building.  Also, individually, each person had the indwelling of God’s Spirit.  Both cast a sober responsibility to use our physical bodies and minds in a way that honors the spiritual presence within us.

A – If we think, speak or act today knowing that God’s presence was standing next to us, would it change the expression?  Would we invite Him into it or would it embarrass our relationship with Him?  We are not perfect but we continue to grow.

R – Lord, you are gracious in your desire to be present with us.  We invite you into all we think, say and do today.  Your presence is a precious gift you give us each day.  Help us to leverage that into a growing, vibrant relationship with you.
