CAN'T STOP TALKING
Today's reading: Acts 3-4

"We cannot stop telling about the wonderful things we have seen and heard." Acts 4:20 NLT

It's not hard finding a place to start talking about God's greatness. From where I sit, I can see the dew on the fields, the trees beginning to drop their spent leaves and a young boy playing, hair still mussed from sleep, with his toys on the front room floor.

I'm warm and comfortable in a home He has provided. I'm sending e-mails to a passle of folks He has allowed me to minister to. I'm getting ready to go out for a run on two strong legs He has given me for a lifetime's use.

I'm a member of a wonderful family--blood-relation and Christ-relation. I have in my cell phone number after number of Christian brothers and sisters who I could call up at any time and share a testimony or a need. I'm making preparation to worship corporately tomorrow in a Bible-teaching church God has placed in my life.

I'm a born again daughter of a King. My sins have been forgiven, washed white as snow and a mansion awaits. I've been handed gifts, talents, abilities from a Master Designer who desires me to be a part of His great work.

I am marveled by nature, but even more marveled by its Creator. I'm mystified by the stars, and enthralled by the One who hung them in place. I value my salvation, hold it very near and dear, but worship my Savior!

I guess I'm in the same boat as Peter and John--I cannot stop talking about God's grace, mercy and love!
