Ordinary People
When they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. —Acts 4:13
Bible In One Year: Acts 3-5
|
Bestselling novelist Arthur Hailey (1920-2004) once said of his characters, "I don't think I really invented anybody. I have drawn on real life." When readers open a book by the British author, they encounter ordinary people whom the writer has placed in extraordinary situations.
In Acts 4 we find ordinary people, including the fishermen Peter and John, whom God placed in unexpected situations as witnesses to the reality of the risen Christ. These men, who had fled when Jesus was arrested, were now boldly facing threats and punishment for telling others about Him.
Even the authorities who opposed these followers of Jesus were astonished "when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men . . . . And they realized that they had been with Jesus" (v.13).
Most of us are ordinary people in a real life of work, relationships, and everyday circumstances. Our opportunities to demonstrate the reality of Christ may sometimes come disguised as difficulties, as they did for the disciples in Acts.
As ordinary people, we can have an extraordinary impact for Christ if we will trust the Author of our circumstances and rely on the Holy Spirit's power. —David McCasland
Just what do Christians look like?
What sets their lives apart?
They're ordinary people
Who love God from the heart. —D. De Haan
God is looking for ordinary people to do extraordinary work.

Good morning to those of you who were here in the early morning hours. Apparently my server was down for a few hours after I posted the thread at midnight.
Hope if you didn't see any of the graphics earlier, you will come back today (though I know not everyone reads the opening posts and might not have even noticed there were no pics - or were too polite to say anything! LOL)
To our veterans on FR and everywhere, thank you for proudly wearing the uniform of the United States of America to protect our freedom.
