TRINITY SUNDAY

The Sunday after Pentecost is called Trinity Sunday, and marks the end/beginning of "special time" when we remember Christmas, Christ's COMING, and Easter, His victory of sin and death, and Pentecost, the Gift of the Holy Spirit to breathe life into the Church-- and of "ordinary time" when we celebrate the Book of Acts, and seek to let the Holy Spirit live through "ordinary people" and keep writing new chapters in that unfinished story.

Ordinary time indeed! The Holy Spirit is not for special occasions only!

Trinity! God in Three Persons! Blessed Mystery! Holy Wonder!

We SEEK after God (Hebrews 11:6) because faith pleases Him, and he is a Rewarder of those who seek!

We WANT TO BE LIKE JESUS (Ephesians 4:32) because that is how God wants us to be: kind, tenderhearted, forgiving, even as God in Jesus Christ has forgiven us!

We ASK TO BE PART OF THE MISSION of God (John 15:8) by bearing MUCH fruit, and so proving we are Christ's and glorifying the Father.

Father...Son...Holy Spirit... with us, in us, making us alive!

So how may we have this Pentecostal fullness?

We ask!

Luke 11:13 (Jesus said it:) If ye, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask ?

I believe that! I am asking right now! Will you join me?

O Father in heaven, please fill me again, just NOW, with your Holy Spirit, and use me this very day to tell someone You are GOOD, and that You love them! Amen.
