On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’”  Now this he said about the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were to receive, for as yet the Spirit had not been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. (John 7: 37-39)

The Holy Spirit frees us from our tendencies to lie and commit acts of evil. These tendencies are within all of us, so much so that we can only obtain our much sought-after happiness with the Father’s help, We can be assured of this through His Son and with the indispensable help of the Holy Spirit . Therefore, may we pray constantly to the Holy Spirit to guide us through life’s tribulations and, in the end, to obtain the true happiness that only God can give us.
