That was such a good description of the Holy Spirit, Bo.

I think it is the emotion that intimidates me when it comes to the H.S. working in me. If I could just do it person to person. . . but then the Lord knows when it happens I will handle it.

The "by-product" thing - it sounds kinda like works being a by-product of our Salvation, not the means to receive it.
