Romans 5:5 “…the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who is given to us.”
How can I describe the Sweet Holy Spirit within me? He is like another Jesus without a physical body. He is the Spirit of Jesus, the Spirit of the Father, so in essence I have the fullness of God within me. He gives me power and light, peace and comfort; He gives me joy in the midst of sorrow; when I am weak, He makes me strong. Just as a breeze carries the sweet fragrance of perfume of flowers, so the Spirit flows through me as love, joy, peace, goodness, and righteousness wafting its way to others. Frederick Faber was one who had a blazing love for the Holy Spirit, and he wrote:
O Spirit, beautiful and dread!
My heart is fit to break
With love of all Thy tenderness
For us poor sinners’ sake.
O Sweet Spirit, fall on me today. Mold me, melt me, use me that Your fragrance will flow through me. Blaze within me and set my soul on fire. Thank you in the name of Jesus, my precious Saviour. Amen
