The Holy Spirit: Wind


The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.” John 3:8 NKJV
I think that watching the wind is beautiful. But we can’t see the wind would be a common reply. No, but I can see the leaves blowing down the street. I can see the branches wave their greetings and watch the tall grass sway in rhythm to its beat. The flag salutes its Maker and the hawk soars on its mighty power. So, while I can’t really see the wind, I really can.
Wind moves things. The Holy Spirit moves God’s children. We can see the changed life of those born again by the Spirit of God. We can see hope come to the hopeless, peace come to the sorrowful, power come to the reticent and good works flowing from lives formerly negligent of their neighbors. At Pentecost the Holy Spirit came as a rushing mighty wind and moved the followers of Christ from a fearful band into a powerful voice for God. He still moves God’s children today and it is beautiful to see the Wind blow.

Dear Father, Let the wind of Your Spirit waft through my life today for the sake of Your glory. Amen.
