No Person is Common

Scripture Acts 10:28 Then he said to them, “You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

Observation: One thing that I’ve learned by praying with people on the strand is that no one is common. Each person is a special creation by the Father. It’s a shame that some people feel that they are not special and feel as if they may not be of any use. I should know I felt that way most of my life. Once you realize God made you exactly as you are with gifts and abilities you need to ask God how wants them used. Then you’ll realize how special and uncommon you really are.

Application: I want to continue to walk the strand as long as God desires me to and tell the people that God puts in my path how special they truly are. To be available to whomever needs to hear that they are made special by the Creator of the world and loved beyond what they can imagine.

Prayer My Lord thank you for making me, me. I know I never used to be able to say that, but now that You have opened my eyes to why You created me and have guided me on this wonderful path there is no one I would rather be.

Good Deeds for Others

Scripture Acts 9:39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he had come, they brought him to the upper room. And all the widows stood by him weeping, showing the tunics and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.

Observation: When we do good works for others we are fulfilling the purpose God has given us.. He calls us to do them for others so our light can shine to those who need Him. When others see our good deeds that is when we give God the glory so that others will believe. To do good deeds for others without giving God the credit is useless, because that won’t lead others to Jesus saving grace.

Application: Whatever I do that is good, God needs to get the glory. My only purpose here is to glorify God and I need to ask the Holy Spirit each day on how I might do that. Every day is different with different people and circumstances and I need to be ready to give a reason for my faith in Christ.

Prayer Lord, I thank you for this journey You have me on and I ask for guidance and wisdom as I go walking among your children. May I be a light to those that are in darkness and spread your love and hope.
