"Jesus breathed on them and said to them, 'Receive the Holy Spirit.'" ~ John 20
I love Pentecost! The Holy Spirit moves so graciously in my life that I cannot help but be overjoyed at the thought of celebrating this gift of Jesus to us. I swear lately that I am being solely held up by the Spirit with my long days and stressful studying. I have spent much of this weekend writing a paper. I still have a ways to go yet.
However this morning I was blessed to attend a confirmation and watch young ones accept this amazing gift on this special feast day. I was moved as I watched one young man receive the anointing from the Archbishop--he seemed to comprehend the great depth of the gift that he was receiving more than the others.
What role does the Holy Spirit play in your life? Do you welcome Her? Do you gratefully accept the gifts that She lavishes upon you?
Peace,
Suzanne
