It was really exciting to see as we traveled across Kansas. Off in the distance, miles away turning ominously in the wind were these wind mills. Actually they are officially called wind farms with 50 or more of these wind mills towering 300 feet high with three blades on each one that are 90 feet long. It is reported that one of these farms can power 40,000 houses. And yet that power is transferred and made into electricity that powers so many things very quietly.
I couldn't help think about how the Holy Spirit does the same thing through us. Some times it is a gentle breeze and sometimes it is a rushing wind but it takes the Spirit to empower us to be all He wants us to be. It's also curious to note the those turbines need to be maintained and serviced. We too need to be maintained through prayer and the reading of Gods Word and fellowship with others.

That is really cool. I'm for wind power!
Hi from Beth's old housemate at GRSBM. I know those windmills are more common in the flatlands, but did you know there are some of those "windmills" in Michigan too?
Like your blog. Good to hear of some of your "devotional thoughts."
