 What greater advantage is there in life than having the presence of the Holy Spirit abide with? There is no greater advantage than having that precious presence of the Holy Spirit abide with. Look, none of us are perfect. All of us have flaws. We all get frustrated with our own humanity, but the Holy Spirit is there. He's that glue that holds all those broken pieces of who you are together. He's the one who causes you to continue in the process of sanctification when you feel like giving up. He sustains you and empowers you into holy living.
