But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth(acts 1:8)

The Holy Spirit Comes at Pentecost
1 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. 2 Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.3 They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. 4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them(acts 2:1-4)

i am just so so so excited when i read about how the holy spirit came... the disciple saw what seemed to be tounges of fire!.. i wonder how it look like...

for a moment i thought.. our caregroup can be like the day of pentecost itself.. the holy spirit can pour his presence on us.. but the problem is... we need to be united.. because in verse 1 it say that "they were all together in one place"... second we need to desire,obey and wait for the out pouring of the holy spirit. check it out in acts 1:4-5

he gave them this command: "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. For John baptized with water,but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit."

the disciples obeyed jesus and stayed in jerusalem.. they went to a place, prayed and wait for the holy spirit.. and there! the holy spirit pour out his presence. but how to know that the disciples desire the holy spirit.. well we can see from their actions by obeying jesus that's all.

so our caregroup can spirit filled if we are united, desire for the pouring of the spirit and we will be really powerful man and women of god.. and also we need to focus on god and his mission for us... even it can happen in our daily life.... i can imagine just how powerful we will be when we are working together with the spirit... that's all folks.. good night...
(well i hope i did not teach anything wrongly)
