Pentecost - one of the essential holidays of the year. From time to time I'm glad to be reminded again what being a Christian actually means.
I had a day off from college which I spent with my family and a friend of mine. We dedided to eat out, and spent way too much money on Greek food, but it was delicious. And I think I should allow myself treats like that from time to time.
I didn't really think about the meaning of that day a lot, but now, looking back, I am glad there are days like this. Days that could hardly be filled with more meaning. Pentecost - the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples of Christ.
What I like to think of most when I am down is that the Holy Spirit is also called the Comforter.
And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. (John 14:16-17, NIV)
