Under the power of the Holy Spirit, shy people have been known to step up onto platforms and say audacious things. Cautious people have become daredevils, frugal people have become philanthropists and people who used to be as sour as dill pickles have become rich with friends.

There is no limit to what the Holy Spirit can do. You just cannot hold your breath, that’s all. You have to keep breathing, keep paying attention, keep responding to whatever crazy idea you come up with next.

Some people call it intuition. Others call it inspiration. Forever and ever, the church has called it Holy Spirit.
