Good Bye Upper Room!



  Today is Pentecost!  A very exciting and enlightening day for all of us!  It is a day to celebrate how the Holy Spirit powerfully entered the Upper Room and ignited the courage of those present to go out and live the Gospel!  Those first disciples dramatically changed their lives and all those they encountered.  They went out and preached the Good News-- and we are called to do the same!
  The world still needs to hear the words of Jesus.  The world needs to know that God the Father loves each of us tremendously.  The world still needs Spirit-filled people to reveal God's Kingdom, because people often don't see God in their life. 
  Today I challenge you to let the Holy Spirit ignite your faith.  Spend sometime alone in prayer today.  Ask yourself some tough questions:  What do you really believe?  Do you believe that the Third Person of the Holy Trinity really lives within you?  Do you allow the Holy Spirit to have a voice in your life?  Do you allow the Holy Spirit to speak through you? What is the Holy Spirit inspiring you to do?  
  You no longer need to be afraid, hiding in your Upper Room.  Allow the Holy Spirit to use your voice to speak His words of Truth! Let the Spirit of God ignite you!
