When the Spirit's around - that's the third of the Three - He regularly raises fresh questions for me: The sought and the seeker the truth and the teacher the help and the helper the gift and the giver? The breath and the voice the chooser, the choice the anointer, the oil the peace and turmoil? The joy and the cries always there to baptise the bearer of fruit with fresh gifts to boot? As wild as the wind He'll breeze where He will I've tried to contain Him but He won't remain still. I won't ever define Him or assign Him a lable just accept He's my God and that my God is able to be true to His Word while resisting defining He'll still leave me questions but that's not surprising. He kicked off creation was around from the start and I'm just the latest to play my small part.
