This week marks the First Sunday after Pentecost. Remember that Pentecost is not only a beautiful reminder of the gift of receiving the Holy Spirit, but also the “birthday” of the church… us… Happy Birthday! May God’s favor always shine down on you.
I mention the Holy Spirit to you as a gift from God… Jesus Christ was an AWESOME gift as well… knowing and having a relationship with your Heavenly Father is equally as awesome… I don’t intend to put limitations on God; however, I want to try to explain God to you… May God have mercy on me… I hope to Glorify my Father in heaven (Matthew 5:16)
I picture God as the full circle in a peace sign with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit as the inner spokes… making one symbol…
We all been given the gift of the Holy Spirit & the Apostle Paul reminds us that our bodies are a vessel for the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19) for those that believe that Jesus Christ is Emmanuel (God made human), Lord, and Savior of all. In my pictorial, the Holy Spirit is one of the inner spokes of the peace sign… BUT WAIT… THERE’s MORE…
I also put the Son as one of the inner spokes. We are reminded that Jesus Christ is the Son of God in the Holy Gospel of John… (John 3:16) A lot of scholars question: “How can it be that the Son and the Father is one?”
We are made in God’s image… (Gen 1:26) Truly I say to you, if you have seen the Son… you have seen the Father! This close relationship is extremely difficult to put into words. Jesus Christ indeed has this intimacy with the Father. This reminds me of a teaching that Jesus Christ gave while on this earth with us. He instructed that we should do good works to glorify your Father in heaven (Matthew 5:16)…
BEAUTIFUL… huh???
