When We Don’t Know What To Do Next

When we are facing something hard

and we’re not sure what to do next—

We are reminded 

that we are not facing it alone.

“…he will give you another Advocate,

to be with you forever.”

— John 14:16

The Greek word translated Advocate—

παράκλητος (paraklētos)—

comes from two words that mean

to call alongside.

Depending on context, it can mean:

Helper — one who actively assists

Comforter — one who strengthens or steadies

Counselor — one who guides, teaches, reminds

Advocate — one who speaks on your behalf

This is who the Spirit is to us.

And this is how we are called

to be present with one another.

Whatever we are facing—

no matter how hard—

there is a loving presence

that comes alongside us

to strengthen, comfort, and guide.

And sometimes,

that presence

is meant to be us.

This is 60 Seconds of Hope.

Peace be with you.
