Holy Spirit!




"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28

Why do Christians get burdened and weary? Do they understand who the Holy Spirit is and what He does?The Holy Spirit is a real person who came to reside within the believer on the day of he/she is saved. He is considered to be the third member of the Godhead. He is a person equal in every way with God the Father and God the Son. "I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper that He may be with you forever; the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not behold Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you, and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you." (John 14:16-18)

The Holy Spirit is not an impersonal force; He is God's way to give us rest in our time of needs. "The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you." (John 14:26).

It is not a sin to be weary. Again, God knows that there would be time when we would need to be comforted. There certain things that we go through no body is able to understand, there are time that we cannot even express what we feel but God understands. He made us, He knows where to touch, and He knows exactly where the hurt is. He knows are to access our ":CPU".

Come to me" is an invitation, He will not intervene unless you invite Him in. We tend to tell our friends everything about our lives but we tend to be too polite when it comes to God. We don't want to bother Him; we pray for a few second, we don't spend the time to tell Him about all that is in our heart. He is omniscient, all knowing but you still need to tell me about your trouble because only God can give the rest, the comfort that you are looking for.

I can't say it enough, come to God, and stop telling the people who are unable to help. Call on the true comforter, the Holy Spirit and get the real comfort. He will build into our lives love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23), in addition to God real comfort.

Take some times today to talk to your comforter; in fact, make a daily date with Him to build your relationship and be blessed.

Be comforted in Jesus name!

Praise the Lord!
