The Holy Spirit is always present.

We can always count on the Holy Spirit to direct our thoughts and actions. However, we must be vigilant about asking for this guidance. We need to remember that the ego wants to be our director too. How do we know which “voice” we are listening to? The answer is always the same. If the act we are about to take or the words we are about to say are not purely loving, we aren't attuned to the Holy Spirit. It's just that simple.

Each day we are bombarded by opportunities to interact with other people who help us get in touch with our spiritual needs. Even the most difficult relationships offer us opportunities to grow and heal. Every person around us helps us return “home” to the realm of the Holy Spirit. In that realm, there is only love, nothing more. Our companions here, now, are the links to the realm of love.

I can have constant contact with the Holy Spirit if I am aware of the ego's attempts to control me.
