I Believe in the Holy Spirit

I believe in the Holy Ghost
He’s the Deity’s third Person
Illumining with truth’s utmost
Teaching me thru divine reason.

Midst varied thinkers’ influence
I believe in the Holy Ghost
God’s Spirit of light’s prevalence
Who leads me against evil’s post.

When doubts, fears, woes, angst have me lost
Assailing my soul with queries
I believe in the Holy Ghost
That unravels life’s mysteries.

Though superstitious myths abound
Challenging philosophies’ cost
God’s Word upholds my faith-strength’s ground 
I believe in the Holy Ghost*.

Jude 1:20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost.

There are must be a reason behind Login to Reply Beata Agustin Date: 10/25/2018 1:32:00 AM I believe that the source of my inspiration is God.
