I love the Holy Spirit

The thing that is so awesome about the Holy Spirit (GOD) is that he is such a gentleman. And by that I mean that He is gentle. He does not yell, He is not sarcastic, He does not acuse or call names. He whispers, He points to things without saying a word. He puts His arm around your shoulder and quietly asks, "have you thought about this?" He tells you what to do and how to do it. He warns you, He corrects you, but only out of Love. What an amazing character. How could we not trust Him? If we open ourselves up to hear what He has to say we can trust that He will tell us the truth gently out of love. Isn't that reassuring? He has no ulterior motive, no desire to cut you down and hurt your feelings. He just wants you to be the best that God has for you. Best of all He is with you if you believe in Jesus. The Bible says that is is possible to quench Him, grieve Him and rebel against Him. Why would we want to do that when He is so good to us?

" So I say to you live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature." Galatians 5:16
" Search me God and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." Psalm 139:23-24
