CHILDREN OF GOD
The Holy Spirit is the person who puts us in touch with God. He brings God's presence, God's love, and God's power into our lives. He gives us the strength to live as Christ lived, and He gives us the inner certainty we need about our faith.
The Bible tells us: The Spirit Himself bears witness with our Spirit that we are children of God. For better understanding i will advise you to read the part 1 of this topic. If you have not read it before follow the link below:

Romans 8:16 (KJV) says: The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.
Notice that the Bible uses the word "spirit" twice once with a capital letter for God's Spirit, and then with a small letter for our human spirit. God's Spirit assures us, deep inside our hearts, that we truly are the children of God.
As children of God, we start to relate to God as our Father. Many people today have had bad experiences of their human fathers. But God is the Father made to the original specifications loving and patient, ready to listen and to speak to us, and also firm with us when we need it.
Again it is the spirit who enables us to relate to God as our Father: For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father".
Romans 8:15 (KJV) says: For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
As God's Spirit works within you, your life, the way you behave, think, and feel will be changed. In the coming months, as you begin to grow as a Christian, and learn to relate to God in prayer, your own experience of him will start to ring true to the promises of the Bible.
Liked very much the explanation of the role the Holy Spirit plays in relating to us as we also relate to Him...I love the power and gifts of the Spirit as I see it in the scriptures and experience them in my life. Thanks for reminding how good God is to send us His Spirit.
As a Christian we must be spirit filled, because the Holy Spirit will grow our spiritual live and we will have good communication with God....nice post

As someone whose father was not present very much, it's a wonderful feeling to have a truly loving and caring Father now. May God Bless you and all who need it.
