Filled with the Spirit

Every genuine Christian has the Holy Holy Spirit (Romans 8:9 Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to Him.) But not every Christian consistently lives under His influence. Ever met a fearful, anxious, cranky, joyless Christian? The Christian life is not simply about trying harder to become like Jesus; it is about learning to depend daily on the Spirit who lives within us and is transforming us into Christ's likeness.
