Very beautiful post. Thank you for writing that.
I, like many, did not give much attention to the Holy Spirit originally. IT is the Holy Spirit that allows us to reach the Father and Son, and is part of the Trinity just as they are. We should be equally aware of all three.
I'm closer now to the Father God, The Lord Jesus Christ, and The Holy Spirit than I have ever been. It is thanks to the Holy Trinity for turning a bad, bad event in my life into an ultimate turning-point in which I realized the complete... how do I put it? The utter lack of significance anything in life has in the long run, anything but work towards bringing others, and yourself, to God. I saw the spiritual battle. I realized everything was an idol. Not simply statues anymore, but jobs, dating, everything, even a church can be an idol if one puts it before God. I saw this as a result of the terror I went through, and in the end I am thankful for the trial which opened my eyes, though I despise the evil I came into contact with.
When did I become aware of the Spirit? I was going to write a description of an event that occurred with me in the past, which my mother had to use drastic measures to secure our safety, but I felt it would disturb others. Instead I will say that everyone need pray the blood of Christ over them, along with equipping the armor of God, the Sword of the Spirit, and the Holy Fire of God, all as protection from all spiritual, physical, mental, emotional, etc. attacks. This needs to be done daily.
Like all trials, all things we regard as bad events in our lives, this one had purpose and taught me something valuable once I opened my eyes. That one terrible thing that occurred actually backfired on satan and made me highly aware of the Holy Spirit, and filled me.
I will not describe this event publicly, but if anyone ever wants to hear about it, I will discuss it with them in PMs, on Skype, or such. If you wish, we can speak in voice.
I love to make new friends. I want to make new friends, keep them, and never again forget how important friendships are. If you ever want a simple, "I can talk about anything with this person and he doesn't judge" type of friend, I would be more than happy to be there. My schedule is a bit random, but anytime I am on, I'd be happy to talk.
