A pastor tells Christians who've drifted from God's calling to stop resisting the Holy Spirit. Fighting it makes you miserable; surrendering transforms you so completely that going back to your old life becomes impossible.
The most miserable people are Christians who are actively stepping out of the call of God. Why? Because they're not stepping into what they were created for. You were created for a purpose. God has given you a calling. And if you're running away from that, it's time to get back on track. Look, there's no limit to what God can do with your life. You just got to give it to him. You have to surrender. You have to finally yield. Stop fighting the Holy Spirit. Once you've tasted of the goodness of God, once you've pursued his call, You can romanticize about going back to normal or going back to whatever it was like before. It's just not going to happen because once you begin to walk in the call of God, there's nothing like it. And then to go back to anything else, it just doesn't feel right. And for the rest of your life, hanging over your head will be that conviction of the Holy Spirit drawing you back on the right path of your calling.
