Sunday Blessings-Spirit

I am grateful for the spirit of God that I know is the Holy Ghost.  When my life is in harmony with God, I feel good.  I feel happy.  Sometimes I have a troubled heart or stress in my life, but when I draw closer to God through prayer and reading His Word in the scriptures, He draws nearer to me with His spirit.  The Holy Ghost is that spirit.  He is REAL and because the Holy Ghost is a spirit, he can be anywhere and the influence of the spirit can be felt by many people at once.  His role as a member of the Godhead is to testify of God the Father and testify of His son Jesus Christ.  They are one in purpose and when the Holy Ghost can be with you constantly, you know you are right with God. I have felt the spirit today and most days I feel it easily.  When I am not feeling it as a presence in my life it is because I have become lazy in my prayers and scripture reading and drawing closer to my Father in Heaven.  Recently, I was very stressed about some church assignments I needed to fulfill and some other good things that made me very busy.  When I needed some peace, I found it in reading writings of Isaiah.  They are sometimes hard to understand, but bring the spirit easily if we try earnestly.  The spirit can bring peace and that is one thing the devil cannot duplicate or imitate.  Only the spirit of God can bring peace to a troubled heart.
