Presenced with Paraclete



I know your presence

Spirit Friend

And Guide, Protector

You happily send

The best of uplift

Every day.

Some whispers heard

Oft’ As I pray.



How marvelous your

Wisdom from Above.

Never push

Never shove.

And gifts outstanding (read First Corinthians chapter 12)

Birthed in Love.



But gentle always

That’s a sign.

Of God as kindly Father

Of all Three mine.

About this poem

I was never in shape to accept Eternal Salvation, until I settled issues of the real presence and power of the Holy Ghost. churches gave out helps about the Father and Son. But little offered on the Spirit. Then I got hold of a book by Catherine Marshall entitled The Helper. Eyes and heart were opened. He was the One who was wooing me into the realm of Triune joy and purpose and potential.
