I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary.
Your eternal Father has a special sort of Son – an eternal
Son. Your eternal Father and his eternal Son live together for all eternity in
perfect, infinite love. The perfect infinite, eternal, love between them is
called the Holy Spirit. Your heavenly Father, his eternal Son, and the Holy
Spirit are all one God somehow. We call this one God “the Holy Trinity.” God
the Holy Trinity made you in order to adopt you. The Holy Trinity wants you to
take part in its awesome life. Therefore, your heavenly Father has not abandoned
you to your wounds, but has sent his eternal Son into the world to come and
bring you back to your Father. The Son came to give you the Holy Spirit so that
you can take part in the perfect, infinite, eternal love between your heavenly
Father and His eternal Son. About two thousand years ago, in the land of Israel , the eternal Son was conceived in
the womb of Mary of Nazareth while she was still a virgin. The Holy Spirit
worked this conception in her womb. Nine months later, the eternal Son was born
of the virgin Mary in the town of Bethlehem
as a human being with a human face and a human name – Jesus. Jesus grew up as a
carpenter in the town of Nazareth ,
a Jew among Jews. Jesus of Nazareth is the eternal Son. He is looking for you.
He sees you, he knows you through and through, and he loves you. He reveals his
love to you in a special way....
God bless you all,

Your last post gave me much settlement about my prayer relationship with God because you gave an analogy about the impracticality of a married man praying like a monk and vice versa. This really helped me because to find a quiet space as a working mum can be challenge at time! So thank you and sorry this comment should be with the last blog however, today your teachings on the Holy Spirit has further fused a deeper understanding of God's infinitive love for me, three fold as the Holy Trinity. I never considered the relationship between the three just knowing of their existence was my limitation looking at my growth now. We have a May pole dance in the UK where you hold a ribbon and dance around to thread a pattern (sounds confusing and bazaar I know!) but this I can see as the Trinity inter-weaving in my life from God
