What’s Your Relationship with the Holy Spirit?

Why is the feast of Pentecost important? What place should the Holy Spirit have in our life? Dave VanVickle hosts the show solo today and touches on the importance of the Holy Spirit and how we can all increase our relationship with the Holy Spirit. 

Snippet from the Show

“Every year we celebrate the mystery of pentecost, why? We celebrate it to renew the idea that we need the Holy Spirit in our life and to see the mystery of the Church being built throughout that time and we can have a stronger relationship with the Holy Spirit. We want that stronger relationship.”

Shownotes

- But I tell you the truth, it is better for you that I go. For if I do not go, the Advocate will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. (John 16:7)

- Therefore, I tell you that nobody speaking by the spirit of God says, “Jesus be accursed.” And no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the holy Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:3)

- As proof that you are children, God sent the spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” (Galatians 4:6)

3 Tips to Foster a Relationship with the Holy Spirit

1. Docility - Listen to that “feeling” telling you to do good things because it’s probably the Holy Spirit

2. Generosity -  In those promptings, give God a generous heart

3. Step Out - Get out of the “Upper Room”, do works of mercy and evangelize
