DRUNK-ON GOD’S LOVE
Have you ever
Gone out drinking
And-perhaps-had a little bit too much
Where you
Were just feeling good
And perhaps
Looking to have fun
Maybe even
Someone said
You had so much-that you were
A little bit tipsy
Or even drunk
Because
You were acting so crazily
NOT for many years-but I have
And I have to tell you
I had some fun times
It may surprise you to know
That that
Was exactly what they were saying
About the early apostles and other followers
After Pentecost
-When they all began
To speak and understand each other
In tongues
Some however
Made fun of them and said,
“They have had
Too much wine”
Acts 2:13
No
DRUNK-ON GOD’S LOVE
Peter
And the other eleven
Heard the rumors
And it disturbed them
Finally-Peter stood up and said,
“Fellow Jews
And all of you who live in Jerusalem
Let me explain this to you
Listen carefully to what I say:
These men are not drunk
As you suppose
It’s only nine
In the morning
This is what
Was spoken by the prophet Joel
“’In the last days
God says
I will poor out
my spirit
On ALL
people……..’”
Acts 2:14-17
Dear Lord we pray
That we too may
Be thought of as drunk
NOT DRUNK
By the drinking of alcohol
But drunk-AND IN THE SPIRIT
As those same early apostles
So drunk
That people will say
“HE-SHE LOVES GOD so much
LOVES other so much
That they are drunk
Drunk
On the POWER
Of God’s love”
DRUNK-ON GOD’S LOVE

Ps WITNESS 5-19-13 and 11-14-2022
HAPPY PENTECOST SUNDAY!-may GOD’S SPIRIT live in you
“When the day of Pentecost came-they were ALL together in
one place-
Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violet wind came from
heaven and filled
The whole house where they were sitting-
They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated
and came to rest
On each of them—ALL of them were filled by the Holy Spirit
and began
To speak in other tongues as the SPIRIT enabled them”
Acts 2:1-4
SUNDAY-June 8th, 2014-is the FEAST of Pentecost
BE JOYFUL in the SPIRIT OF GOD'S LOVE
