Remember when you were a kid and you went swimming in the pool? Sometimes you'd play with an inflated ball in the pool. No matter how hard you tried to hold that ball under water, it insisted on bobbing to the surface. The ball might have weighed all of 8 ounces, but because it was filled with air it would hold you up as you wrapped your arms around it.
When we invite Jesus into our lives, He comes with His holy air to inflate us. As the Holy Spirit (spirit also means air) fills us, we will continue to bob to the surface no matter what pressures and problems try to push us under. The Lord is a buoyant presence and He will lift us up!
Ezekiel 43:5 "Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple."
Keep holding onto Him! He will hold you up.

O.K., everybody, time to get into the pool!
