Jesus has given us the opportunity to accept an incredible gift. Yes, eternal life is pretty good; however, right now I'm talking about the Holy Spirit. When Jesus was on this earth he could only be in one place. Upon returning to heaven, he promised all his followers that the Holy Spirit would come down and be with them everywhere all the time. Today, we have this help, too. Through every trial we face, we have the Holy Spirit in our hearts to help. The Holy Spirit is referred to as the “Great Comforter”. The Holy Spirit is a comforter because peace always resides with truth. The Holy Spirit speaks truth to our minds, which then implants it in our hearts. Without the Holy Spirit it is impossible to effectively share the good news. It doesn't matter how educating you are or how hard you try. True change only comes by the power of the Holy Spirit. Let's pray that Jesus will fill our hearts with the Holy Spirit.
