The Holy Spirit came as the Comforter in the quiet of my morning. He reminded me that fear is like a ghost trying to haunt me. But if I am not afraid of ghosts, then why should I believe my fears? Then my sweet time with this Holy Guest got interrupted by an angry hum growling through my kitchen window. The sound of a lawn mower sure had its way of disturbing my quiet time.

What are the intrusions that interrupt your time with God? Or what are the fears you are believing?
