And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; and behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.” (Matthew 3:16, 17 ESV)
I really love that imagery of the Spirit of God. Resting on Him. I have always thought it WAS a dove. But now I see it was just like a dove. Still beautiful and so very comforting to think about. I wonder if anyone else saw the Spirit of God? Or if it was just Jesus?
Also- I'm assuming that the Spirit of God and the Holy Spirit are different? Since Jesus hadn't beamed up yet...haha, sorry- I watched an alien movie tonight.
Tips for my fellow friends. There is a great "blogger" app for posting. I'm using it right now on my ipad. Also, I listened to the audio reading of the scripture tonight while I followed along. It really helped me focus and pace myself while I read content I have read a million times. And he knows how to pronounce everything! Just click the little microphone thingy in he right corner of you version.
I love the blogger app!!
