Thought for Today: Sunday February 26:
The Command to [be filled with the Spirit] actually has the idea of continually being filled. This verse can also be translated -- [be filled and keep on being filled]. Dr. Merrill Tenney has compared this to the situation of an old-time farmhouse kitchen. In one corner was a sink, above it was a pipe through which came a continuous stream of water from the spring outside. The water, by running constantly, kept the sink full of water up to the brim. In the same way, Ruach HaKodesh should flow in us constantly – and He will, as we yield ourselves to Moshiach’s Presence and Power every day.
