BELIEVED AND TURNED
Today's reading: Acts 11-12

"The power of the Lord was upon them, and large numbers of these Gentiles believed and turned to the Lord." Acts 11:21 NLT

These power-filled Christians were not sitting on their church pews.

They were not comfortable and reclined in their prayer closets.

They didn't have the means and the material to canvas the neighborhoods they were called to reach.

They were not in positions of authority.

These Lord-enabling Christians were running for their lives, flushed from their homes, attempting to 'make it' in foreign lands learning new languages and tip-toeing around new temptations.

And yet they were impacting the Gentiles.

In the midst of their discomfort.

Amid their persecution.

Despite their inconveniences.

So why aren't we?
