Grace for your spirit September 2, 2014

Grace for your spirit
So they went on their way from the presence of the Council, rejoicing that they had been considered worth to suffer shame for His name.  Acts 5:41

Suffering and persecution seems to have been the fuel of the faithful in the first century.  The more people tried to stop them, the better they got.  We seem to be filling our tanks with ease and prosperity.   We must think if they world sees our health and wealth, they will want come right in.  Is that working for us? Our evangelism engines have come to a halt.  When we get out into the world, and suffer shame for His name, that's the boldness that draw souls to Christ.
