How to stay on track?

Bible:1 John 2:18-27

The Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is
true—it is not a lie (V.27 NLT).

As the world’s fastest blind runner, David Brown says his wins are all down toGod, his mum’s early advice (“no sitting around”) and his running guide— Jerome Avery. Attached to Brown by a string tied to their fingers, Avery guides Brown’s races with words and touches. “It’s all about listening to his cues,” says Brown, who says he could “swing out wide” on 200-metre races where the track curves. “Day in and day out, we’re going over race strategies,” Brown says, “communicating with each other—not only verbal cues, but physical cues.” In our own ‘races’ in life, we’re given a Divine Guide. Our Helper, the Holy Spirit, leads our steps when we follow Him. “I am writing these things to you about those who are trying to lead you astray,” wrote John (1 JOHN 2:26). “But you
have received the Holy Spirit, and he lives within you, so you don’t need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know” (V.27 NLT). John stressed this to the Christians of his day who faced “antichrists”— people who denied that Jesus is God’s promised King (V.22). We face people like that today as well—perhaps even in our churches. But the Holy Spirit, our Guide, helps us keep following Jesus. We can trust His ‘touches’ through the Bible to keep us on track.
