Acts 11:17 NLT
And since God gave these Gentiles the same gift he gave us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to stand in God’s way?”
”…who was I to stand in God’s way?”
Great question!
Who am I standing in the way of?
Is the life I’m living, getting between God and someone around me?
Do I proclaim to know and love God but live contrary to that proclamation in the presence of others?
When faced with challenges, do I meet them knowing that God, the Creator of the universe, is living in my heart and will help me through, or do I worry about it and fall apart, fussing and grumbling in front of others?
Lord God, help me face my challenges, knowing that my call is to ”Stand Firm,” knowing that these challenges are for my spiritual growth.
Help me to ”Always be joyful. Never stop praying and to be grateful in ALL circumstances,” realizing that this is Your will for those who are in Jesus Christ.
With a humble and submitted heart to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, I pray, Amen!! 🙏❤️
