Holy Spirit, come and restore us! 

Many people long for change. They feel unsatisfied about the life they live now.  

Do you face a heavy workload and stress in your daily duties? Or do you have to cope with loneliness or depression? What can you do to make the change that seems so necessary? Your own power seems too limited to make the change that seems so necessary. And circumstances aren’t likely to change automatically. 

This Sunday we will celebrate Pentecost, the wonderful event of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, that happened about 2000 years ago in the city of Jerusalem. Why did this happen? It was the fulfillment of the promise of Jesus toward his disciples: ‘I am with you all the days till the end of the age.’   

The Spirit is the only one who can really change our life. And that’s what He longs for! If you ask what his most important work is, it is this: 

• He wants to demonstrate wrong choices and dead-end roads in our life. 
• He wants to reveal Jesus to us and give us a new identity in Him.  
• He makes us search for God’s new kingdom and be happy witnesses of the Gospel. 

Do you long to know more about the work of the Spirit and do you long for his healing and restoring presence? See, hear more in the service of coming Sunday 20 May, 12 hrs 15 in the Génestet Church, Oude Delft 102. Till soon!
