Thought and Songs for Today
On the evening of that first day of the week, when the doors were locked, where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.” When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.” John 20:19-23
Today we celebrate the Solemnity of Pentecost. Pentecost represents the full bestowal of the Spirit on the Church, sanctifying and empowering the Apostles and all disciples. There were physical manifestations such as driving wind, the holy spirit being unseen yet powerful, moving where He wills and producing visible effects in people’s lives. The tongues of fire signifying the Spirit’s purifying and transforming action, burning away sin and igniting hearts with zeal for God’s mission. At Pentecost, the disciples received the Holy Spirit, which emboldened them to become fearless witnesses. Reflect today on the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. Have you allowed the Holy Spirit to transform you? Has the power of the Holy Spirit filled you with the power from on high, emboldened you, purified you and set you on fire to fulfill the mission God has entrusted to you? The Holy Spirit will transform us – if we let Him – setting our feet on the path to glory.

Pray for those who are in Africa in areas currently affected by the Ebola outbreak – Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda, and South Sudan. Pray for those setting policy for containment of the outbreak that God may lay His wise hand. Proper containment practices are hard, but necessary. WHO was late to the game with this outbreak and Air France has already mucked-up resulting in a flight bound for Detroit diverted to Montreal.

Georgia 2020 election “finger stickin good” booger, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger, lost his bid for governor to Trump-backed Georgia Lt.

The U.S. Senate voted 50-47 yesterday to advance a war powers resolution. Senator Cassidy jumped ship and joined the Democrats. Trump endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the Texas U.S. Senate runoff race. Paxton will face incumbent Texas U.S. Senator Jim Cornyn on 5/26/2026.

1. Ohio News. Abortion pills should require an in person office visit to obtain and should not be available with the click of a finger on-line; Ohio has a case validating this point. Ohio is not immune to the healthcare and daycare fraud uncovered in California and Minnesota. It is a shame that the two Ohio brothers sentenced for fraud involving a scheme including posing as Arab Royalty did not use their clever minds for legal financial purposes. These two hooligans would probably be great fraud investigators, which Ohio is in need of now.

Thought and Songs for Today
Jesus said to his disciples: “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate to be with you always, the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot accept, because it neither sees nor knows him. But you know him, because he remains with you, and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you. In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me, because I live and you will live. On that day you will realize that I am in my Father and you are in me and I in you. Whoever has my commandments and observes them is the one who loves me. And whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and reveal myself to him.” John 14:15-21
In the todays reading Jesus speaks of not leaving the disciples as orphans even though he will soon be physically leaving the disciples. Jesus is in them and they are in Jesus. Just like the disciples we too yearn to be near Jesus, longing to belong, to be loved and to be part of a family. Faith is the key to this relationship. It is the acceptance of a personal revelation from God and choosing to live according to that revelation. Faith also unites us with one another. We are no longer orphans but brothers and sisters in Christ. Reflect today on how you can experience the membership of being in God’s family today through living in accordance with God’s commandments, prayer, and daily acts of love.
