Grace for your spirit June 1, 2010

Grace for your spirit

So they went on their way from the presence of the Council,rejoicing that they had been considered worthy to suffer shame for His name. And every day, in the temple and from house to house, they kept right on teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ. Acts 5:41-42

The apostles and the Christians experienced many highs and lows during their walk for Christ. One day they would be in jail, the next day they would be free and preaching. One day they would be beaten, and the next day they would be rejoicing that they could suffer shame for Christ's name. They experienced despair and joy. but kept on preaching Jesus Christ every day. Many people follow Christ, but never experience any such emotions. They wonder when they will feel the joy of service the word talks about. Without clouds, we cannot appreciate the sunshine. Too many Christians settle for the "flat line" experience. Not too sad, not too wonderful. On the heart monitor, a flat line means we are dead. Are we alive for Christ, or the walking dead?

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit

Philippians 4:23
