"If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” - Luke 11:13
This weekend (May 28) marks the arrival of Pentecost. It first began as a festival to give thanks for the first-fruits of the wheat harvest, and later celebrated God giving the Ten Commandments to Moses. For Christians, it also marks when the Holy Spirit was suddenly poured out, launching the Church. In each instance, the Lord shows us that we are not alone, and that He always provides, directs, and empowers. Let’s reach out to Him today. The Holy Spirit is here to help!
