 Many believers live their lives in fear, constantly wondering if the last mistake that they made was the one that caused the Holy Spirit to leave. But remember, when you make a mistake, the Holy Spirit doesn't abandon you to yourself. He abides faithfully. Why? Because he wants to help you get it right. Why would God remove from you the only power that you have to live holy as a punishment for not living holy? The Holy Spirit is not a reward for holiness. He is the source for holiness.
