—John 14:15-17
by: Angie Osborn.
Jesus was preparing His disciples for His departure. The promise of the Holy Spirit was His assurance to them that He would not leave them alone; that they would have help carrying out His mission. As believers, we also have the promise of the gift of the Holy Spirit dwelling in us. We have the same assurance as the disciples—with the Holy Spirit, we are never alone. We have the Spirit to guide us and to give us strength as we strive to live a godly life.
