Sharing God's Love Growing Faith Worshipping Together

HOME
Thought for the week:​​

Pentecost, all a lot of ‘Hot Air’? Acts 2.

We all know the phrase, “it’s all a lot of hot air” meaning empty boasting, pretentious

talk, and a waste of time. Today is Pentecost, the celebration of the outpouring of God’s Holy Spirit, the wind and the flame, hot air, on all people, completely the opposite of a waste time, essential! Think of a hot-air Balloon, without hot air it is just

an empty sack going nowhere, but filled with hot air it gracefully rises and is blown

along by the wind. This should be like us, as churches filled with the hot air of the

Holy Spirit rising up to God’s glory and blown by the wind of spirit. Are we empty

sacks, or we are God’s ‘hot air balloons’? Let us all be filled with God’s Holy Spirit.

Who knows where we will be blown to?

S.D.

Collect

Holy Spirit, sent by the Father,

ignite in us your holy fire;

strengthen your children with the gift of faith,

revive your Church with the breath of love,

and renew the face of the earth,

through Jesus Christ our Lord.
