Romans 8:5-8 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
When God chose to give us His Holy Spirit as residents on our lives, He gave a great gift. He gave us an internal tuner to set our minds to, to guide us into obedience to the Law of God. He helps us please God, which is what we long to do. He brings harmony into our lives so there is peace, purpose and progress in our sanctification. Without Him, we do not have purpose or power to do so. Let us "set on minds" on hearing and responding to Him today.
