God Communicates

John 14:18 (KJV) I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

This is a case where I did not start at a verse and then seek a deeper understanding.  This was the case where I was thinking about God communicating with us, and this verse came to mind.  The reason it might help me understand is that the context of this verse deals with Jesus sending the Holy Spirit to be with us. That in itself is a wonderful concept.  My thinking, however, is more about understanding the word of God, and the will of God, rather than just rejoicing in the presence of the Holy Spirit.

In a roundabout way this reminds me that the Holy Spirit will help me to understand what I read.  I am no longer the general pagan, trying to understand spiritual concepts that are beyond me.  I am now the believer, who has a personal tutor to explain, and enlighten.

So?  God wants to communicate with His people.  He has given us His written word.  He has sent His Holy Spirit.  He will communicate if we will seek and listen.
