Welcome to Life


When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 2:1-4




He sat in the dark cafe knowing everything. All the details of our existence. All the whys, wheres, and hows. All of life, and all that comes after, were known to him. He blasphemed. He mocked. He was right and these idiots were wrong. The simple herds and their nonsense were beneath him, not even near his greatness. And when the Spirit was poured out on the Earth, he wept somberly. She knew nothing, except God and, when she saw him weeping, prayed for him to see.




And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; even on my male servants and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy. And I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke; the sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day. And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:17-21

How has this time changed you?





Are you back to normal life?




Have you gone out?




How has this time changed you?

Do You Believe in God?


Do you believe in God?

I do.

Here is a video I saw online. I don't know this person, 
but I thought his story was compelling.

Words


Let the words of my mouth and 
the meditation of my heart 
be acceptable in your sight, 
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. 

Psalm 19:14

Shh...


I am so tired of the word Covid.

I don't want to hear it anymore.

I think we should take inspiration from Elon Musk's new baby's name and call it something unpronounceable instead. That way everyone can quit talking about it.

Be well.

Car Church in Ukraine



This is funny to me and also very, very cool. 
Our church (in the USA) is doing this today too. 

Have a blessed Sunday!

Isaiah 49:6



he says:
“It is too small a thing for you to be my servant
    to restore the tribes of Jacob
    and bring back those of Israel I have kept.
I will also make you a light for the Gentiles,
    that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.”

Yeller



A little play on words!

But...

What are you "yelling" these days?
Good or bad. 
Some people are yelling peace, others safety, some doom. 

What are you yelling?

Motives




Do you wonder sometimes why we are told what we are told? 
Just 37 seconds in, Gul Dukat, while hearing a crazy story, finally asks something we should all ask from time to time, 

"This is a very entertaining story, but why am I listening to it?"
