Day Five

New Creation

READ

Genesis 1:1 - 2:3

The first verse of the Bible is: In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the Spirit - breath - of God was moving over the waters.

Witness:
The Holy Spirit? I didn’t really like him. Don’t even now, much. I find him a bit scary - always telling me things I don’t want to know.
But when I said, ‘The Father and the Son I know - a little, love a little: but you? I do not know you,” in the night a voice answered, ‘But You do. You do. You do. You hear the blackbird singing on the wall. You see the Dachshund bouncing on her four short legs, her ears flying. You know the moon, a gold-white ball in the evening sky. You know me but you do not recognize me.”

The third last verse of the Bible is, “The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come”. And let him who hears say, “Come”. And let him who is thirsty come and drink of the water of life without price.

The Spirit speaks in creation, and the Spirit speaks in the Bride, the Church

Let us pray
Lord
Open our eyes, our ears and our hearts
to recognize that you are the Spirit of Life and Truth.
You who live and reign forever.
Amen.
