Acts 2 shares, of the life of the early church, that there were wonders and signs and the magnificence of God was on display in their lives. People were awed by His life expressed through them. In light of that truth, a thought from this weekend has left me with much to ponder...

Something is wrong when our lives make sense to those who are not Christ-followers.

Thinking about that thought (is that meta-thinking?)

2 Verses leave me undone... Paul writes that I joyfully get to suffer for the sake of the gospel... willingly becoming a servant to the church of Jesus Christ... commissioned by God.... with the clarion call to make clear the word of God in its fullness. Honestly, that's a big deal. If these words find root in our fellowship, we might not make sense. We might leave a sense of wonder and awe for the living God. Holy Spirit, stir!

By Grace... For Glory,
Mark
