The events of Pentecost show that the Spirit comes and speaks into the heart in our natural, intuitive “tongue”. The Spirit does not speak in a learned or exclusive or elusive way that puts us in a place of inferiority, but in a way that is accessible to all. This is a precious indication of God’s desire for nothing to get in the way or our relationship with God. God calls us to be a visionary, prophetic people, active in bringing about God’s realm of compassion and justice in the world so that all may flourish.
Personal Reflection:
The challenge of Pentecost is in remembering the power of the Spirit is at work every day of the year.
Celebrate Pentecost by doing something that reminds you of your resurrection into a new life.
