Grace for your spirit July 22, 2010

Grace for your spirit
When they heard this, they quieted down and glorified God, saying, "Well then, God has granted to the Gentiles also the repentance that leads to life." Acts 11:18

When the other apostles met Peter after he had taught and baptized a houseful of Gentiles, they were not happy. Peter related his vision from God and how God has directed him to go. When they heard the overwhelming testimony of Peter, they could do nothing but agree with him. They said they believed, but did they really mean it? Time would show that they could not refute Peter, but they really weren't convinced. They continued their prejudice and separation from the Gentiles. How about us? Are we converted to God's way or just giving Him lip service? Do we mean we are willing to follow God's will, or do we just say it? Let's say it, mean it, and do it.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
