Reading along with us in our Lenten readings from “The Life of Jesus”? Here’s today’s reading:
Lent 2025 – Day 30 in the Book: “The Life of Jesus“
The Last Forty Days
Read Sections 6.13 through 6.14 (pages 193-194)
This book is an account of Jesus’ life and teachings told in chronological order from the four Gospels to create one continuous story.

The Holy Spirit fills the room and we see another miraculous sign from God. The speaking in tongues is definitely a spiritual gift and therefore has it’s place, although its use in corporate settings can often be misused and the Bible clearly expresses that it shouldn’t be used without someone there who can interpret it. This event was different because the people heard the apostles words in their own language therefore they could understand what was being said. The Holy Spirit made a way for everyone to hear the word at the same time in their own language…pretty cool!
Lent Day 30
How Breath taking it must of been to see Jesus disappear
into the clouds. Just for believing you can live through and hearing In all differant languages. The flames of fire and a great wind. Flames behind each one of them. How blessed are we that Jesus allows us that same Holy Spirit so freely. Thank you Jesus
Wind fire. God has used these to get man’s attention for centuries. By memory. Pentecost 40 days after resurrection? Peter the best analogy. No filter. Quick tempered Peter. Now bold but humble. Denied 3 times. Fear. Now he stands before thousands preaching the messiah was Jesus and you crucified him. Cutting them to the bone. No fear. Holy Spirit!! Wisdom comes!! Had 3 siblings all A students. Me. C-D. Holy Spirit gave me more wisdom then the 3 combined for once in my life I was energized by something that mattered so much more than anything I was taught. Full of joy pressing on to draw closer. Not for knowledge but wisdom to understand a little more the love of God for me.!!! I will never comprehend the measure of that. Just look to the cross and I am completely overwhelmed in my soul
