Grace for your spirit
Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. Acts 10:34-35
When Cornelius and his household were baptized, they were the first Gentile converts in the New Testament. However the conversion of the Gentiles was not the only conversion in Acts 10. The first one took place up in Joppa and it happened to the Apostle Peter. Before the vision God gave Peter, he would have never considered leading these souls to Christ. God dealt with him and showed him a new way to look at all people. God had promised Peter the keys to the kingdom, and this vision was the key that opened that door to the Gentiles. We should never believe that conversion is a one time event. Conversion is a never ending process that continues to open new doors for our obedience and service. We need to let God work on all of us today. He has also given us a key to open doors. Let's think outside our box, and get outside our box for Him.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
