* God, as the Holy Spirit, is by your side at all times. The Holy Spirit is always by your side to give comfort (John 16:7): [Jesus said] “Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.” The word “Helper” in this version translates the Greek word Parakletos, which means “One called alongside,” “Comforter," “Helper,” “Intercessor,” “Aider,” and similar words.
