The Holy Spirit

More precious than 
     all worldly goods
           more beautiful than 
     the earth and sky
the Holy Spirit
     sent from heaven
            lives within my soul
for I believe 
      in Him, received
              have been set free! 

I am now a child of God
      sealed by the Holy Spirit 
             God’s great gift to me. 

For by the Spirit 
     I receive...
          His love
          His joy
          His peace
when I pray, asking  
with a heart of humility. 

The Holy Spirit guides me...
     gives me a heart that 
         desires to worship Christ
            Redeemer of my life. 

Person of the Trinity 
Holy Spirit within me.

Lady Labyrinth January 15, 2020 at 3:29 AM Through Christ one finds God. Is Christ the only one to traverse to find God? Other cultures and religious deities stand by Christ? Or follow behind Christ? The theology is compelling. Jesus Christ suffered for us, this is true. He was a true man, his suffering was immense on that cross and he went through all of that for us, this is true, I do believe in that...but what proof Jesus Christ is the only one to deliver us to God? Laura Leiser January 15, 2020 at 10:07 AM Jesus is God in the flesh accord. to the Bible. In John 1....”the Word was with God..was God..Word became flesh and dwelt among us..” Laura Leiser January 15, 2020 at 10:02 AM 1 Timothy 2:5 says there is one God and one mediator between God and man..Christ Jesus. You either believe in the infallible truth of God’s Word, or not..not subjective to man’s finite mind. The Holy Spirit in one’s heart confirms it as the Truth.
