A Pentecost by the |
|
In one of
our later meetings we were deeply interested to hear Miss M. Sturdee’s story of
her strange experience on the banks of the Hudson River (U.S.A.). Miss
Sturdee is an old friend of many |
|
With her friend,
Miss M. M. Schofield, she had been visiting a number of Pentecostal centres
in the States, and was hoping to receive a full Baptism of the Holy Ghost
with the Scriptural Signs. Then she had a dream, in which she saw a beautiful
river rippling in the sunlight, and then across this picture the two Greek
letters, “Alpha” and “Omega” (the first and the last). |

It seemed
to be a message from the Lord, it was so vivid. It was not long after that,
in a railway train on a branch line running over a bridge and along the
Hudson River, she looked out of the car window, and had to cry to Miss
Schofield, ”Oh, this is MY River.” Then the power of God fell upon her, and
in the car she found herself speaking in Tongues as the Spirit gave her
utterance. She could not speak English again for some little time after. We
all listened with great interest to this testimony. It seems as if scarcely
two persons are dealt with in the same way, but the Lord does all things
well. |
