The filling of the Spirit is entirely the work of the Spirit Himself, but He works only through our willing submission. Our part is to surrender to His control; allowing Him to permeate our heart, mind and will, so that He can begin to influence our conversations, our worship, our attitudes, and relationships.

Jesus describes the richness of the relationship He wants us to enjoy with Him

We are not to be like the rest of the world who are controlled by their flesh. We are not to be controlled by our feelings, our experiences, or our passions. When we are being controlled by our feelings, we will only love those we feel like loving. When we are being controlled by our circumstances, we will only love when it might benefit us. And when we are controlled by our passions, we don’t love at all, because our passions keep us from seeing those who need the love of Christ. No, we are to be different from the world. And we can live differently from the world. That’s why Jesus sent the Holy Spirit: so we might let Him help us live and love like Jesus.
