Receive God’s Spirit!
Change Your World!
Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.”
And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. “
John 20: 21-22
Today brings Eastertide to a close. We close with the receiving of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Divine! With this Divine Presence we can continue the Way of Love and Peace that the Divine Presence entered into our world in Jesus Christ Our Lord.
God the Father sent God the Son, in Jesus, to live among us and show us by word and deed what Divine Living is all about, Total Trust in God! Trust includes the choice of love even in times of hate.
We are to be other Christs!
Jesus was conceived in the womb of Mary, we as other Christs, we were conceived at Pentecost when the Divine Spirit came in power and entered us!
However, there is a great challenge for us here!
Do not block the Divine Spirit!
Jesus did not hate anyone! Remember on the Cross when He was falsely accused, scourged and carried His instrument of execution, He said;
“Forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”
Luke 23: 34
Hate blocks the Divine Presence!
May we be vessels of the Divine Presence, may we experience Pentecost always, and be the change in the world that Love brings!
Again, Happy Pentecost Sunday!
Pax.
