No one could possibly love you more than God the Holy Spirit.  You have given and received only natural love.  God’s love is supernatural.  His love for you is unlimited.  He created you.  Just as you are.  Just as He wanted you to be.  He wants you to know Him.  He wants you to be happy and enjoy this world and this life He gave you.  With His gifts, He gives you all you need to accomplish this.  He wants to give you unlimited WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING.   He wants to COUNSEL you and give you FORTITUDE.   He wants to make it easy for you to be close and intimate with Him through His gift to you of PIETY.  He wants to create in you a love for Him that will satisfy every want and desire you have.

When Jesus lived on the earth with His disciples, they were content to give up everything to follow Him, just to be near Him.  With Him, they were safe and if they needed any COUNSEL they knew He could give them the answers.  The disciples had never experienced or even heard of such a source of comfort and WISDOM on earth.  So when it was time for Him to leave they were very upset.  He assured them by telling them He would send the Paraclete, the Comforter to be with them and with all of His followers.
