Growing up Roman Catholic, I was taught that there were three separate entities that made up God. The first being The Father, then The Son, and then The Holy Spirit. Most people think of The Father first as God. Then Christians will say Jesus is Lord (The Son). But what about The Holy Spirit?
The Holy Spirit, or Holy Ghost, is God that lives within each of us. Jesus' disciples were baptized with The Holy Ghost upon his resurrection. This passage is found in John Chapter 20 or Matthew Chapter 28.
I returned to church today after my two week no-show. I felt The Holy Ghost move within me today to a point where I had to bow my head to The Lord and come to a full-bowed position, just about on me knees for a period of time in prayer. The urge to bow my head is just one of the many ways The Holy Ghost can and will act in you. Each person and each time is different depending on how The Lord wants to speak to you and how He wants you to worship each time. Sometimes a person feels unbelievable joy and wants to run, shout, jump, and dance. Other times, The Holy Ghost looks to humble a person and bring them to their knees. Either way, The Holy Ghost is powerful and should not be ignored or disobeyed.
"Where I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men." -Matthew 12:31
