Help From The Helper: The Holy Spirit At Work In An Ordinary Life

These essays come from encounters with a silent HELPER, whom as a child, I couldn't identify. In 1953, I was a nearly deaf child placed in first grade in a public school where I sank like a rock and sank for eight years. At home, I was living with an un-diagnosed Bipolar mother, and in school, sent to Special Education. When I encountered Jesus at age seven, strong answers that made sense, as if someone were silently helping me, began coming. Then, one day, I read:

"....it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I go away, I will send the HELPER to you." John 16:7

These essays from years of journal entries are from encounters with the HELPER and were originally written for my grandchildren.
