Why... Receive the Holy Spirit?

God in the person of the Holy Spirit dwells in the hearts of all who believe. We do not want to ignore that or brush it off! Many people are afraid of the Holy Spirit and many people think if you start talking about the Holy Spirit then you might become a "fanatic." However, God asks us to seek the Holy Spirit and in return we receive the fullness of His Spirit everyday and He will give us power, encouragement, comfort, strength, direction, peace, purpose... the list goes on!
