Thanks Natasha for such a wonderfully organized and enouraging reminder! I'm just reading today which is Sunday the 21st, and as usual God's timing is almost? unbelievably.
In our service today, Pastor Lott also reminded us of some points that blessed us incredibly.The subject of his message was the Holy Spirit, he askede us to imagine how the disciples must have felt after learning what the great the great commission was for them, and how anxious they must have been to get started on their mission, but thas Jesus told them that they had to wait before leaving Jerusalem! Pastor Lott went on to comment on how difficult this must have been because they had no idea as to what they were waiting for, why or for how long.He also pointed out how in the days of the Old Testament. the Spirit had made limited appearances, and because He hadn't appeared for a long time,they probably were wondering if they'd been abandoned or left by the Spirit. In the New Testament these thoughts and possible fears were completely disproved when Jesus, the Spirit bearer came! Throughout time the Spirit has appeared in many forms and to a variety of different people, and to "walk in the Spirit", as the Bible commands us to do we must learn to submit and follow its lead!
