Crisis Through Pentecost

Pentecost is a feast day for the Jewish, celebrating the beginning of the first harvest. In Christianity, it is a celebration and remembrance of the Holy Spirit descending upon the Apostles and other followers. The Holy Spirit came and filled the disciples, and in that moment, Christianity became more than just Jesus' life, it became life in everyone who receives the Holy Spirit. We can all ask and receive the Holy Spirit into our hearts, he will guide us and give us strength to accomplish God's will. The Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness, interceding for us through wordless groans and giving us strength to endure uncertainties and persecution.
