Faith is required in this truth

John 14:16 “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever—the Spirit of truth.” God knows we are weak when left alone and are like fragile lambs without a shepherd.  We would wonder, get lost and be devoured by wolves. That is not symbolism—that is the truth.  What does He do to protect us?  He gives us the Holy Spirit who lives inside each of us.  That truth is not only a miracle each of us enjoy, but also the truth which gives us strength and comfort to survive in a world of hurt and chaos.  The Holy Spirit gives us a comfort, so we thrive with hope and never have to live in fear.
