The Abiding Presence of the Holy Ghost in the Soul

The wonderful beauty of the Church’s teaching on this abiding presence of the Holy Ghost, while it deepens our acquaintance with His mysterious governance of the universe and discovers to us the hidden beauties of our soul’s life, should bring also its measure of comfort, for whatever makes us conscious of the intimacy of God’s dealing with us lessens life’s greatest trouble, its loneliness.
