Dear Friends in Christ -
When the Spirit came to the disciples at that first Pentecost, there was this huge display of God's power - wind and tongues of flame, then fresh connections with people in many languages. In the days following that amazing scene, power continued to ripple out. People continued to discuss the happenings. New communities of faith started to form.
In these days after we experienced Pentecost last Sunday, how have we continued to feel and see the Spirit of God at work? How has it been happening? Where are fresh new things opening up?
On the roof ledge outside my window, there's a little bird singing so loudly that her whole body is shaking. And suddenly now, there she goes, flown away. Is the quivering power of her song lost now that she has stopped singing? No way! It's ringing in my heart. I carry its echoes inside me. Who knows how long they will stealthily inspire me, secretly rippling out from me in the most unexpected ways and places.
Faithfully,
Janet+
