Have you ever felt disappointed with yourself? Our disappointment with ourselves can become a launching pad to find the dynamic life that the Holy Spirit brought to the disciples in the upper room on the Day of Pentecost.

Paul warns us not to put the Spirit's fire out and reminds us that God will finish the work that He started in us because He is faithful.
