Who is the Holy Spirit?

The Holy Spirit had many names and can be many different things. The bible portrays the Spirit as “a divine person with emotions, a mind, and a will” who knows everything like God does. He is the Counselor and the Teacher who will help us in time of trouble and help us with what to say. The Spirit will teach us was we need to know and help us remember Jesus’ words and the scripture passages we’ve memorized. The Holy Ghost can be perceived as the author of scripture being in the writer’s hearts and telling them what to say. The Spirit is a guide who will lead you to where you can be the most helpful and where you can make an impact. Also, the Holy Spirit can translate our prayers to God and translate what we say to the Father. The Spirit is the third person of the Trinity who has many names and labels, but who we know the least about.

Picture Description

My picture for the Holy Spirit Project

In my picture I have a dove with flaming wings and the wind blowing around. The reason I have the dove if because in Luke 3:22 it says the Spirit came down from heaven in the form of a dove. “And the Holy Spiritdescended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: ‘You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.’” ~Luke 3:22. So, I drew a dove because that was a bodily form of the Holy Spirit. I gave the dove flaming wings because at Pentecost the Holy Spirit came down in tongues of fire and rested on the disciples. Fire is another form of the Spirit came as. Lastly, I drew the wind because when the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost, the whole house was filled with the sound of the blowing of a violent wind. That’s why the wind is there.
