ECCLESIOLOGICAL ETCHING
May 21, 2021
Scripture: Acts 2:2-3
Suddenly a sound from heaven like the howling of a fierce wind filled the entire house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be individual flames of fire alighting on each one of them.

Thought for the Day: Those familiar with the creation account in Genesis 1 will recognize the importance of wind when something new is emerging. This wind/spirit is not only present in the moment of creation, but is the creative power behind every new thing God is doing. I remember sitting in a meeting with church folks where we were doing some dreaming, and suddenly the creativity began to explode around us. People were getting excited, and one person’s idea was built upon by another person and then another. Out of the blue, someone said, “Did you feel that breeze?” No one understood the comment, so she clarified it for us. She believed the spirit was moving among us as seen in the creativity from which something new was emerging in that moment. It makes me wonder how often we feel the divine wind/spirit move among us, and we just go close the window because we assume it was nothing more than a draft.

Prayer: Come, Holy Spirit, and do what you always do. Come among us and create a new expression of your love in this moment of time. Amen.
