H is for Holy
“And the Holy Spirit
descended in bodily form like a dove upon him,
and a voice came from heaven
which said,
“You are my beloved son, in you I am well pleased”. Luke 2:32
Our God is holy, as in the
Holy Spirit. God’s Holy Spirit directs us in how to live our days as God’s holy
people. The Holy Spirit is always with us no matter where we go.
The Holy Spirit also
guides us in our prayers. When we don’t
know what to pray, or when our prayers seem “un-holy”, the Holy Spirit speaks
to us and for us.
When I think about the
Holy Spirit I always think of John baptizing Jesus in the Jordan River, and the
Holy Spirit appearing as a dove. With
the Holy Spirit’s help, I try my best to live a holy life. My prayer is that
God will be well pleased.

Paula, I am right there with you. Sometimes I think my prayers are un-holy too, but I pray that the Holy Spirit will make them holy. Or times when I just can't pray, I ask the Holy Spirit to pray without ceasing for me. Thank you for your meditation on "H is for Holy"!
ReplyDeletePaula, that is so good! It's a wonderful explanation of who the Holy Spirit is and what He does.
