God’s Living Word Today - Wednesday June 3, 2020

I remind you to stir into flame the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands. For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control. [2 Timothy]

The Holy Spirit empowers, enlightens, and encourages all of us who are baptized to be strong, loving, and wise in serving the Lord Jesus.

There has been a loss of understanding of the power of baptism that remains in us all our lives but which becomes dormant because baptism is seen as a one-time event that produces a certificate of the past rather than testimony to a power of the present.

We are anointed by the Holy Spirit and are drawn into the very life of the Trinity, the inner of life of God who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit that we will celebrate this coming Sunday (Holy Trinity Sunday)

Where do I need to be made stronger in my faith witness today? To whom do I need to be more loving today? Where in my life do I need self-control today?

Father Dennis
