"God's Gift of the Holy Spirit"
Luke 11:13; Acts 2:1-4
God made his presence known to this group of believers in a spectacular way-violent wind, fire, and his Holy Spirit. Would you like God to reveal himself to you in such recognizable ways? He may do so, but be wary of forcing your expectations on God. In 1 Kings 19:10-13, Elijah also needed a message from God. There was a great wind, than an earthquake, and finally a fire. But God's message came in a "gentle whisper." God may use dramatic methods to work in your life-or he may speak gentle whispers. Wait patiently and always listen.

BLACK HISTORY TRIVIA:
Congratulations to Tyrone Walston, who beat DeShawnna Davis by 8 minutes with yesterday's correct answer, Barbara Jordan. Here is today's question: this man became the first African-American to head a standing committee of congress on this day in 1949. What was his name and what was the name of the committee of which he was elected to chair?
