The Best Gift - Holy Spirit

If God could give us anything better, He would have certainly done so; 
Yet, He gave us His Holy Spirit. 
And rightly so, so as to fulfil His title of the God of Divine Providence. 
The Holy Spirit guides us, 
nourishes us, 
teaches us, 
leads us, 
directs us,
transforms us,
moves our hardened hearts,
uses us for God's greater glory, 
protects us,
moulds us,
empowers us,
opens the eyes of our minds to understand God's word, which then nourishes us, 
opens our lips so that we may share the love, peace, hope and joy we have found in Christ, 
opens the doors of our hearts to love God more deeply and faithfully. 
The Holy Spirit influences us to re-prioritise the many aspects of our lives with the recognition that only God matters.   
We are influenced to lead our lives more fully in God's ways as He reveals to us slowly but surely who God truly is.
Through the Holy Spirit, we find God, who is no longer abstract or distant from us but real and concrete. 
He directs our perception into the realisation of the deeper meaning of life. 
Through these, our lives are transformed and we begin to truly live life meaningfully, purposefully; we reap the fruits of fulfilment, peace, joy and hope that God promised us as we become united with His Will for us. 
In giving us the Holy Spirit, God has given us the very best; no other gift can be better. Because in giving us the Holy Spirit, God is giving us Himself and God is LIFE; anyone who believes in this truth, and welcomes and invites the Holy Spirit into his life will receive God Himself, who is our key to a life truly worth living.
