February 24

The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh and whither it goeth; so is every one that is born of the Spirit. — John 3:8

We know that the wind listeth to blow where there is a vacuum. If you find a tremendous rush of wind, you know that somewhere there is an empty space. I am perfectly sure about this fact: if we could expel all pride, vanity, self–righteousness, self–seeking, desire for applause, honor, and promotion if by some divine power we should be utterly emptied of all that, the Spirit would come as a rushing mighty wind to fill us. — A. J. Gordon.
