ULTIMATE GREEN
St. Patrick's Day brings the green out in everybody. Green - the color of growth and sometimes used to describe envy. The green Shamrock is displayed and we wear green to celebrate this Irish holiday - on this day we are surrounded with green.
According to Wikipedia, it is a widespread interpretation that Saint Patrick was an active missionary in Ireland during the second half of the 5th century - the exact year is disputed. This Patron Saint of Ireland is celebrated each year on the day of his death, March 17th.
Interestingly and according to St. Patrick, the three-leafed Shamrock was used to symbolize the holy trinity representing the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. As a symbol of the "Three-In-One" it reminds us that the Creator desires our fellowship, our Savior died to make it possible and we are spurred on and growing into Christ's likeness by the power of the Holy Spirit, our Counselor!God's holy presence in us - ULTIMATE GREEN!
“The greatest miracle God can do today is take an unholy man out of an unholy world, make that man holy, then put him back into that unholy world and keep him holy in it.” Leonard Ravenhill (1907–1994), a British evangelist
The psalmist David marveled at the holiness of God's presence exclaiming ...
"Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there." Psalm 139:7-8
As the oohs and aahs of the Shamrock resound, God's holiness softly whispers, "I'm here!"
Blessings...as you experience ULTIMATE GREEN today - God's holy presence!
