Aldersgate & Pentecost

It is not often that Aldersgate Sunday and Pentecost fall on the same day, on the 24th May. Both of these events are deeply significant in the lives of Christians, and especially people aligned with the Methodist tradition. If for some reason you don't know what these 2 days represent have a look at the links provided: Aldersgate Sunday and Pentecost.

Pentecost is significant for me because it reminds me of the following key things for my faith:

1. God fulfils his promises.Joel 2:28 - "I will pour out my Spirit on all people."
2. The Spirit of God is with us all the time - Matthew 28:20.
3. God grants us the ability and strength to do things for His glory.
4. God's love is poured into our hearts - Romans 5:5
5. The Spirit brings revival and renews the Church.

May our hearts be "strangely warmed" on this day.
May the Spirit of God move our faith from being a "religious" knowledge into a dynamic relationship with the Living God.

"Because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us." - Romans 5:5
