Topic: I Send Forth the Promise of My Father

Scripture: Luke 24:48-49

Jesus asked the apostles to wait for the coming of the Spirit so that they would be clothed with the powers that they needed to complete their mission. Jesus knew what they would need just as he knows what we need. We are called to be disciples also, and we receive the gift of the Holy Spirit with our baptism.

The powers that we need are right there for us. But like anything, we need to use them, the more we ask God to help us, the easier it gets. No one becomes a great athlete with putting in a lot of practice. I know I have heard the phrase “practice your faith” more than once. Do we think it’s just a phrase or is it something we take seriously?

The Holy Spirit, I think, is the forgotten person of the Trinity. We think about God as Father, as Creator, and we know the Son, Jesus, but how often do we think about the Holy Spirit? These next few days are the perfect time to reflect on the Spirit as we celebrate Pentecost. We know the gifts outlined in Scripture but do we take them seriously? Which gift do you need in your life right now?

I think I am always looking for wisdom and understanding, but sometimes courage is first, especially when I don’t want to do what I know I should do! Perhaps counsel is the most important thing if you have big decisions to make. I see little reverence in today’s world, and we all could use a little fear of the Lord. And we can all use more knowledge. Let’s take the time for a spiritual check-up and ask for we are lacking.

Prayer For Today
Gracious God, help us to remember that you are always there ready to give us all that we need to come to you and spread your message to others. Thank you for all the gifts you have given us, and help us know what we need today. Amen.
