Like a sudden breeze drifting in through a window on a sultry summer day, the coming of the Spirit, though unseen, has the power to arouse sleepy dispositions and transform volatile tempers, changing the whole atmosphere of the place He enters. The Holy Spirit proceeds from God and touches every person.
We find another valuable clue to the differences between the Three Persons of the Godhead in the names Father and Son that Jesus so often used while He was on earth. These terms are obviously not meant to be understood in our human sense, because the Bible says nothing about a divine mother. Rather, the word Son in reference to Jesus can be understood in two ways. First, as a human being, Jesus was born on earth as the human Son of a human mother.
And second, the word Son reflects a relational closeness between God the Father and Jesus in His divine form. All of this provides us with a way to understand that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are a divine Family.

Yet even our most idyllic and intimate earthly families are just a hint of the close, loving relationship between the Members of the Trinity. The terms Father and Son also help us to understand the difficult choice that Jesus had to make at one point in the distant past.

And the good news is that when we accept Jesus, we are adopted into this loving divine family. We become sons and daughters of the Father and co-heirs with Jesus Himself see Romans 8: Does this mean that He protects us from an angry God? The Bible assures us that both Jesus and the Father love humans and are deeply interested in our welfare John 3: When the Bible speaks of Jesus as our Mediator, it means, rather, that the Father reaches out to us through His Son and embraces us in our smallness without overwhelming us with His divine greatness.
For if God were to appear before us in all of His divine glory, we would be smitten dead. So the Bible describes God the Father working through Jesus to create and sustain us, to call us to Himself and to bring about reconciliation between God and us that results in new lives with Him, which will continue forever.
When we are in a relationship with Jesus, He provides everything we need. BuildUP - Spiritual Development.
