The Holy Spirit journeys with me

Sister Amy Hamilton, SSJD May 17, 2013

I like to be able to control things, or at least fool myselfinto thinking I can control them. I think that this is why I am not thatcomfortable with the Holy Spirit. It is the part of the Trinity that Itry not to think about. I think that this comes from my fear of whatcould happen if I let the Holy Spirit have a go at my life or thesituation that I am in, because you hear stories of what happens whenyou let go and let the Holy Spirit in.
