Today's Gospel of Jesus Christ

“I did not tell you all this previously because I was with you. 5 But now I am going away to the one who sent me. Not one of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6 However, because I have told you this, you are overcome with grief. 7 “Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth: it is better for you that I depart. For if I do not go away, the Advocate will not come to you, whereas if I go, I will send him to you. 8 “And when he comes, he will prove the world wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 about sin, because they do not believe in me; 10 about righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will see me no longer; 11 about judgment, because the ruler of this world has been condemned. 12 “I have much more to tell you, but you would not be able to bear it now. 13 But when the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own authority, but he will speak what he hears, and he will declare to you the things that are coming. 14 He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and communicate it to you. 15 Everything that the Father has is mine. That is why I said that he will take what is mine and communicate it to you. John 14:4b-15, New Catholic Bible.

Good day brothers and sisters. I am glad that you are all taking your part in the Gospel, and so suffering for the Gospel of Christ, and continuing to persevere for Christ Jesus who delivered each and every one of us out of our filthy sins. Keep loving one another, and keep proclaiming the One true truth that comes from God Almighty, the Father, the Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit who has continually shown his Love to us to those who are in communion with the Holy Spirit.

The message today, brothers and sisters, is that we must rely on the Holy Spirit in everything that we do brothers and sisters. We must not do anything without the Holy Spirit, for if we do, it can spell destruction and calamity. Remember brothers and sisters the simple fact that with man it is impossible, but with God, all things are possible. And the best way for all things to be possible is to simply rely on God, that is the Holy Spirit in our lives who has come from the Father, and sent to us through the Son's death and resurrection. In this way brothers and sisters, when we do accept the gift of the Holy Spirit in our lives, our lives will indeed change for the better.

For the Holy Spirit does indeed know all things like the Father and the Son, and like the Father and the Son is an actual person in which we can rely on and talk to. He may be invisible to our eyes, but when we truly Love him and truly are in communion with him, we can truly feel his presence in our lifetimes. He is kind and merciful just like the Father and the Son, and when we totally ask him in faith and love for him to help us, he is willing to help us out in our hour of need.

And so brothers and sisters, it is very important for us to rely on the Holy Spirit, for when we do, we can truly do all things that pertain to Jesus Christ. How does one rely on the Holy Spirit? As it is, the Holy Spirit is a person, a real being who is like the Father and the Son, and so we can simply just ask him to help us whenever we are in total need of his help. For when we rely on the Holy Spirit, we truly do feel God's love and peace. For when we are with the Holy Spirit and in communion with the Holy Spirit, we truly live after God, and we truly live like Christ.

Some ways to ask the Holy Spirit to guide us and help us and lead us is during the daytime, we can simply pray to him on the spot, asking for his help and leadership, and he will do it, for he is trustworthy like the Father and the Son. We can quietly pray to the Holy Spirit asking him to lead us and to show us the way, and to help us to keep Christ Jesus' commands, especially about Love.

In fact, as I write this article, it is late, and I really want to go to bed right now, but because I am relying on the Holy Spirit to give the strength to write this article, it becomes so much easier to do the task, because I quietly prayed to the Holy Spirit to lead me and to help me to write this article. He was willing to give me the help, and I accepted by simply allowing his power to work through me. I believed, and it happened. I had faith, and it happened. But most of all, I really do love the Holy Spirit, and so he loves me as well, because I love the Son of God, and so the Father Loves me as well. Because of all this love, he did this for me, and it is indeed the greatest reason why he is helping me at this moment in time: God's everlasting and perfect Love.

One more testimony to give you an idea on what reliance on the Holy Spirit can look like: as I was taking my AP Chemistry test on the second week of school, I prayed for the Holy Spirit to help me and to lead me through the test, and he really was willing to do it, and I accepted in faith, belief, and Love in him, and he has really done it for me. As a result, my performance was really good compared to class averages. And one more testimony: as I was wondering what to write for my essay in school, the Holy Spirit came upon me, and did tell me what to write. Once again I did rely on the Holy Spirit for help, because I had no idea on what to write. And to this day, I can say with confidence that that essay was really one of the best I have ever written, and it was about Jesus Christ. So reliance on the Holy Spirit is a real deal thing.

And now brothers and sisters, with this knowledge and wisdom that has come down upon us from Almighty God, we can truly Love God even more now, so long as we put this into practice. Rely on the Holy Spirit as it has been just told in this article, and use these simple testimonies about the Holy Spirit to strengthen your faith, hope, and Love in Almighty God.

Go Glorify the Lord with your life. Amen.
