Perfect and good will

The Holy Spirit enables us to live according to God’s will, guiding us and giving us the strength to do what He wants for our lives.

Without the help of the Spirit, we would not be able to do what God asks of us because our abilities are limited, and our selfish desires often influence us.

But the Spirit gives us the power to follow God, even when it is difficult.

Jesus tells his disciples that they will receive “power” when the Holy Spirit comes upon them. This power is the ability to do things that are beyond our strength, such as loving, forgiving, and living righteously.

The Spirit enables us to testify, live for God, and overcome life's difficulties. We are never alone in our challenges: the Holy Spirit accompanies us, helping us to carry out God's plan.

Another way the Holy Spirit helps us follow God's will is through his guidance. Paul says that all those who the Spirit of God guides are his children.

The Spirit speaks to us, gives us peace, or makes us uncomfortable when we are about to make a wrong choice. It is like silent but powerful advice which shows us the right path to follow.

Finally, the Holy Spirit gives us the courage to live for God even when others do not.

He fills us with love, joy, peace, patience, and all the qualities that make us capable of following God every day. In this way, the Holy Spirit makes us instruments in God's hands, allowing us to carry out his plan in our lives and bring his love and light into the world.
