John 16

Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you...All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you. vv.7,15

Read chapter 16
The Holy Spirit.  Not always talked about in church or among believers.  Is it because He seems too mysterious?  I think most people picture Him as a floating ghost 
What's the point of the Holy Spirit, here called the Helper?  Jesus answers and says that it's to their benefit that He goes away so the Spirit can come.  Jesus, although He was God, was also fully man and could therefore not be multiple places at once. Jesus has many disciples, more than just the twelve that He spent the most time with, yet He could not give all of them His full attention.  Think of it, are any of you parents with multiple kids that have a hard time giving each kid your full attention as well as your spouse, not to mention anyone else outside your immediate family?  Or certain friends in your life that are more acquaintances because you or they don't have enough time to spend good quality time together?  That's the amazing thing about the Holy Spirit, He can be everywhere and anywhere!  The Spirit can guide, empower, rebuke, comfort to thousands or millions of people all at once.  This indeed was more beneficial!  Yet how often do we today wish that Jesus was here alongside us more than we wish for the Holy Spirit?  Yes we pray for Jesus' return that He will sit as King of the world and set it to how it was originally created.  We who believe have the Helper today, not fully revealed yet but working in us.  Jesus is the Helper just as He is the Father.  For one can not give something that is not theirs.  What is the Father's, is the Son's, is the Holy Spirit's.  What do you understand of the Holy Spirit?
