Fire. It’s intense, beautiful, dangerous, overwhelming, warm, and all consuming. Fire can be used to warm us on a cold night, or as a way to gather friends on a summer evening. It can also yield immense destruction. Fire is powerful. This is the image that we hear about today as we learn more about the Holy Spirit. The Apostles have tongues of fire descend upon them. At our Confirmation, our hearts are set ablaze with the Holy Spirit. Think of a blazing fire, it consumes everything nearby, without hesitation or prejudice. Are we really ablaze with the love of Christ? Do we radically and unabashedly share him with those around us, setting their hearts ablaze, too?

So, today, PENTECOST SUNDAY, as the Holy Spirit makes you busybodies in your involvement in spreading the “Good News” of the Risen Christ to every creature, believe also, that the Holy Spirit consecrates you as living saints despite of your sins. And then, act as holy people and live as saints.
