We enjoyed reading through Acts 7 together on Sunday morning. During our brief overview of the Genesis-Deuteronomy, we were able to also read through the apostle, Stephen’s final trial. His death did not come swiftly, but by the process of being stoned. Throughout his trial, Stephen was given ample opportunity to recount his statements, in what would have been an attempt to save his earthly body. We see a bold and Godly example here, of a a man who spoke the truth of Christ, no matter the cost. Do you allow God to speak through you? Do you speak with the confidence of the creator of the universe as your backbone? We must be in tune with the Lord’s message and in a position willing to share with who God is calling us to. See, God doesn’t need us to spread His good news to the ends of the earth, He allows us to be a part of it! Continue to be bold in sharing the good news. Remembering that at times, this will put you in the uncomfortable position of having to forgive those who speak against you, in your full surrender to God.
