A Good Read
Every once in a while, I come across ‘a good read’. A book I want to keep and read through more than just one time. I found such a book, “True Stories of the Miracles of Azusa Street and Beyond” by Tommy Welchel; I am sure you will also enjoy this book—it’s is inexpensive and one can purchase it on-line/multiple websites.
I do enough serious reading so I need easy pleasurable reading to balance my intake of words. Children books are by far my favorite, after that short story books, and then those books that motivate me.
This book of Tommy Welchel is written on a middle school reading level and divided into many short stories, which include amazing testimonies as to the power of Christ. I will most likely read it over again and again to remind me what God wants to do in our lives because of Christ and His great love for us.
These stories remind me of the beginning of the Charismatic Movement (early 1960’s). There were constant miracles so similar to what took place at the Azusa Street Revival. We never knew what God was going to do next. Those were the days of simple prayers, high expectations, God confirming His word with healings and miracles, and not least, His protective covering over His children.
The church is always waiting for the next great movement of the Holy Spirit. All I can say to the church is, “You have the Holy Spirit already in you. So begin to believe, expect in humility, and ask for God to do great things to glorify His Son.”
This is what Jesus told His disciples over and over again and His advice is still good for today…What Would Jesus Want Me To Do?
