God the Holy Spirit - Our
(John 14:16-18)
He lives with you and he leaves in you. If we don't know which way to turn we might begin to worry. But once you accept God you will never be alone. He will send you someone who'll guide you through it all and that is the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is member of the trinity along with The Father and The Son.

▪️Convict us of Sin (John 16:8)
Before we sin and do something bad we already hear a voice who convicts us that what we're gonna do is not right. He makes us realize that we are sinners in need of salvation so that we may repent and receive forgiveness.
Even after salvation he continues to convict us when we fail to live as we should. Reminds us that sin does not fit us.
▪️Seals us (Ephesians 1:13)
He marks us that we are God's property. The truth that God's Spirit has been marked to us. The seal is to authenticate to, show ownership, and to protect. You are owned by the one who sealed you. The Holy Spirit seals us in our hearts in Christ as children of God. 'Do not accept if the seal is broken.'
