Have you ever felt unequipped to handle the circumstances of life? Jesus said that we would have troubles in life, but to take heart because He had overcome the world and He would send a Helper. That Helper came in the pouring out of God's Holy Spirit, initially at the Pentecost feast in Jerusalem following Jesus death, resurrection, and ascension. That same Spirit is available to followers of Jesus today to empower us to carry on the ministry of Jesus and reveal His love and character to a lost and dying world!
