Reading: Acts 2:13
“But others sneered and said, ‘They are filled with new wine.’”
These scoffers at least had the courage to speak their ridicule aloud.
To go on record for saying give me proof. Perhaps some secretly longed this was
all true but could not bring themselves to believe what they saw.
Today with all the advanced multi-media technology we can rarely trust
anything that is presented at face value. Caution is a must with our culture’s
advanced schemes and marketing.
And yet maybe we have become so jaded world wise that it
subconsciously undermines real faith opportunities and perspective. We struggle
to recognize real answers to prayer. We may not actually sneer in our hearts
but silently let fear clog the opportunity to step into true light and healing
and hope. We think it might be possible in theory—possible for someone else—but
not for us.
“Ask, and
it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be
opened to you.” Matthew7:7 NAS
And we hesitate, or reluctantly turn away, because it seems too good to
be true.
Lord, please give us sight to truly see You. Give us faith to trust.
And give us discernment to clearly recognize Your words in our lives.
Psalm of Worship: Genesis 1:13
“And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.”
