Grace for your spirit August 31, 2010

Grace for your spirit
And the jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, "The chief magistrates have sent to release you. Therefore come out now and go in peace." Acts 16:36

Did you ever notice? After the night of singing and praying in the prison, after the earthquake, after the doors of the jail fell off, after Paul and Silas taught and baptized the jailer and everyone else in his house, after the had enjoyed the fellowship together, Paul and Silas went back to jail. They were there the next day when the magistrates came to release them. Why did they go back? It was the right thing to do. Doing great things for God does not exempt us from meeting our responsibilities. Obeying God is not a "get out of jail free" card. Let commit to do the right thing always. God will take care of the rest.

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