I liken answering this question to describing my late father to someone who doesn’t know him. I can choose to describe many of the different aspect of him; his occupation, his age, his family, his physical attributes, his characteristics, his personality etc. But none of them would have much relevance to the person listening to me.
So I choose to describe our interaction, my emotions during those encounters in an attempt to help the listener relate to me, to the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit teaches me about many things in life, better way of living life. I have had long frustration/resentment of how my daughter uses the toiletries as her bowling pins and leave them in pile of mass destruction after every shower. For months, I have picked up the aftermath and restored them grudgingly, dreading the next destruction. One day, a knowing/thought/voice said while I look at yet another mess, if she loves bowling it so much, why don’t I set it up so she can enjoy another fun session? So I did, this time with much peace and joy.
I didn’t breathe a word to anyone about my thoughts. But, my daughter never bowled again, ever from that day forth.
I erased an attempt to explain what happened, how can I explain the Holy Spirit? Smile. I shall leave my story as such.
