One revelation that struck was Pentecost is the Israelite Festival of Weeks - a "week" of weeks since the Passover. It was a time when they thanked God for the gift of processed grain. Isn't that incredible, people coming together to celebrate food, I could just imagine the streets filled with people dancing, singing, playing their instruments and bringing praise to God.
In the morning we went upstairs and put music on and danced around bringing thanks to God for all His provision and for the wonderful Holy Spirit.
The afternoon was spent preparing our evening meal.

We were expecting guests for this evening but they had to cancel due to having the flu. As a family we don't normally eat red meat but the roast lamb was embraced by all the family. Last time I cooked a roast lamb would of been at least 8 years ago, but I have to say it was delicious.
The apple pie was just scrumdilyumptious!!!
Oh yes, this sounds wonderful - definitely an idea to emulate next year!!
