FROM ONE WHO TALKS A LOT
Today's reading: Acts 4-5

"So they called the apostles back in and told them never again to speak or teach about Jesus. But Peter and John replied, Do you think God wants us to obey you rather than him? We cannot stop telling about the wonderful things we have seen and heard." Acts 4:18-20 NLT

If you think I'm word-y when it comes to what I type, you should be in a face-to-face conversation with me!

I'm a bit of a talker!

A chatterbox!

A discourser!

But this morning as I think about what Peter and John were told by the members of the religious high council, I'm given pause...

If I were told not to talk about Jesus.

About what He had done for me.

About the hope He holds.

About the salvation He offers.

About the light He gives for dark lives and dark paths.

I truly wonder if those listening to anything I have to say would hear anything different?

Could I keep quiet?

For the life of me, I don't think so!
