The gifting of the Holy Spirit puts on display God's character - as a promise keeper, one who is faithfully present in the waiting, and as a generous giver. Remembering these attributes and this dramatic biblical event gives us hope that the newness of life we desire will indeed be made real in and through us.
2 Corinthians 4:7-11, 16-18
