Today in Pentecost Sunday. Fifty days after Passover and ten days after the ascension of Christ, the Holy Spirit came like a mighty rushing wind to indwell the believers that were waiting in Jerusalem. That day, the church was born. Under the New Covenant, all who trust in Christ are sealed and indwelled with the Holy Spirit. Praise God for the Holy Spirit. He gives us the power to accomplish our mission to make disciples of all nations.

Tomorrow is Memorial Day. It is the holiday where we remember those who have died in the military service to our country. So as you cook-out, go to the beach, or enjoy time with family, say a prayer for those who have lost family and friends serving for our freedom.
John 15:13 says "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." And may this be a reminder that this is exactly what Jesus did for us. He laid down His life on the Cross so that we might be reconciled back to God. Those who trust in Jesus and His work on the Cross are no longer enemies of God but are friends of God. And even more than friends, we are adopted into God's family.
