All of us at one time or another will experience trouble heartache and loss and this is when we need the comfort of the Holy Spirit who says ' I cannot shield you from this, you will have to go through it, and you may feel some pain. But I will be with you all the way.' As he was preparing his disciples for leaving them as he would soon be returning to his Heavenly Father Jesus promised his anxious and frightened disciples that he would give them another Counsellor who would remain with them forever. A Counsellor and Comforter for every generation not just for these early church believers. He said the world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him for he lives with you and will be in you.' As we explore further who the Holy Spirit is in our series on the Trinity we will draw closer to discover one of the most important relationships we will ever have as Christians with the one who comes alongside us to help in times of trouble, to discover someone who feels for us and is with us to give us strength who simply says, "Here's my comfort, you can get by with this.'
