Sally and I were at a leadership conference on Merritt Island, Fl, with TFC, base camp of Teen Missions International. Merritt Island is in shadow of Kennedy Space Center. The Odyssey, a probe to Mars, was launched, Apr. 7, 2001. As the time approached for the launch, all eyes looked to the skies. Soon we could see a small blur streaking upward in an arc leaving a trail of smoke. Visually, not much to look at, but the significance of the launch was breathtaking ~ I saw with my own eyes the launch of a probe to Mars. Even the locals were thrilled saying, “we never get tired of watching.”
Today, in the book of Acts, the spacecraft is launched. The day of Pentecost in Acts 2 is over. The probe/church is readied, on the launch pad. It’s time for the H.S. to explode. The ministry of the disciples of Jesus Christ begins in Jerusalem, as Jesus said, READ Acts 1:8. The Church is on the launching pad. She is filled with the fuel of the Holy Spirit. Boom. Take off.
