As we leave Resurrection Sunday behind, we should look forward to the move of God that is coming. News events like the passing of Mike Wallace, turmoil in the Arab world, and even racial tensions here in America all vie for our attention. What should we as every day people be concerned with? What can we do to change the hearts and minds of our friends and neighbors? We should wait and focus on the Lord.
The bible tells us of Jesus interacting with His followers in the 40 days after the resurrection. This was part of a countdown that the Jews observed for thousands of years leading up to what we call Pentecost. The idea is to search out and look for God. In the end, the Lord pours out His Spirit, enough to turn the world upside down, when we genuinely search Him out in His word and wait on Him. We can you and I do? We can seek Him.
