Last day of August. Hard to believe that September starts tomorrow. But here we are. It’s been almost a week since the banquet. And I’ve heard from several people about how much the night meant to them. How much it moved them. How much more they want to be involved. And that is awesome. Because that’s the Holy Spirit. What we told everybody Saturday night is that all the things that we have accomplished have nothing to do with us. Yes…I understand we are the hands and feet. I get that. But the Holy Spirit is what makes all this possible. Because the Holy Spirit is moving in people’s lives.
People might question how powerful the Holy Spirit is. They might question just what is it that the Holy Spirit can do. Here’s the answer: It just takes one encounter with the Holy Spirit for your life to change forever. Read that again. It takes just one encounter with the Holy Spirit for your life to change forever. Pretty powerful if you ask me. How many other things, how many other experiences, how many other encounters, do you know of that could change your life forever? Not many that I can think of. And that’s why the ministry is doing what it’s doing. Because the Holy Spirit is guiding people.
Yesterday I was talking with one of our supporters. We communicate a lot through email and texting. But every now and then we get a moment where we get to talk on the phone. And we were discussing this very topic. The Holy Spirit moving in people. It may seem like we repeat this point to death. But why not. We talk about it all the time because it’s the truth. It’s the plain truth. And people need to hear it. We need to hear it in order to serve like we are supposed to. If you go into one of our events with a servants heart, serving others, as the Holy Spirit leads us, you come out of the event more blessed than you gave to others. And that my friends is the Holy Spirit. And remember this. Jesus can change your life. He loves you. Always has. Always will.
