Earthquake City
January 28, 2011

In his book A Crack in the Edge of the World, Simon Winchester writes of the small earthquake-prone town of Parkfield, California. Seeking to attract tourists, a hotel sign reads: “Sleep Here When It Happens.” A local restaurant menu features a large steak called “The Big One,” and desserts are called “Aftershocks.” But all humor aside, a real earthquake can be a terrifying experience. I know. I’ve lived through California earthquakes.

In the book of Acts, we read how God used an earthquake to open someone’s heart to the gospel. Having been falsely accused, Paul and Silas found themselves in jail at Philippi. Around midnight, an earthquake rumbled through the prison, opening the doors and loosing the prisoners’ chains. When the jailer learned that Paul and Silas had not tried to escape, he asked, “What must I do to be saved?” (16:30). Paul responded, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household” (v.31). That night the jailer and his family believed and were baptized. And it all started with an earthquake.

Sometimes life’s upsets can make people more open to the gospel. Do you know anyone who is going through a crisis? Prayerfully stay in contact with them, and be ready to share a sensitive word of witness.

Lord, use us as Your instruments
Of truth and love and care,
And may we bring encouragement
As Your good news we share. —Sper

Many are brought to faith by trouble.

Read: Acts 16:23-34

Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. —Acts 16:26

Bible in a year:
Exodus 19-20; Matthew 18:21-35

Sin is all around us,
sins voice is loud and rampant,
God is everywhere present
and invisible.
all that is ... is of God.
a still small voice in each of us,
Which we hear and listen too ...
makes all the difference

Great to hear! I thought I might be a day late but I figured she wouldn’t mind! LOL!

I had to run out a few minutes and just got back. I picked up breakfast while I was out!

I am fixing a big skillet full of blueberry pancakes, and thick sliced baked ham

Got plenty - you can put the breakfast (you just bought) in the fridge and eat it tomorrow
