Hi everyone, I have been a bit of a writer since childhood. Usually I just stick to writing factual things though-like my story of my faith journey it was all factual true account and it was a joy for me to write and share it.
I remembered today when I had just finished writing my testimony that I was a bit nervous sharing my private life and faith journey with the world although this was something I wanted to do. Since those early days I have ironed out my nerves out today when sharing. God will not abandon you in difficult times. This is a promise of God found in multiple Psalms (Psalm 37). Thanks be to God.

I wrote this to say with my nervousness when this started the Holy Spirit made themselves very apparent to me.I felt like I couldn't walk in my senses and then I felt a presence and pressure on my own feet which was a spiritual experiencee which powered me on in my walking briefly. The Holy Spirit took control of the situation and I was not left alone and neither felt it.
I have also experienced a wind encasing and encircling around me in a bright sunny day. I knew it was God’s Holy spirit-which has been a strong arm anchor and pillar for me in my life. Praise be to God.
The Holy Spirit is the breath, wind, spirit of God and I felt this at church too.
When I have prayed, I have felt the spirit near me and also my arm has became very heated which blessed Holy water and the water was blessed by God.
It is God’s 3rd attribute and which is the Paraclete that Jesus said he would send us as a comforter on earth (John 14:26). The Holy Spirit has many roles and to learn more on this please see my post on Baptism to find out more. https://www.racheltestimony.com/2025/06/why-baptism-is-important-to-christian.html
When I see a river/stream I sometimes say I need to stay as close as possible to it and then at the end I will find my reward-which is usually a waterfall source I am trying to locate. The faith and following the truth is a bit like that-if you hug it tight and follow that light to the end you will find Christ. Hug that river all the way to the end and stay tightly to it. Trust in the Lord.
