Acorn Build Up: Courage

Courage

Acts 4:13
When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.

The people that have made the largest impression on me about living a life of faith have been normal everyday people. Of course I've been impressed with learned church leaders, but it's the ordinary people that have profoundly moved me.

If you really want to impress the people in your neck of the woods, then live a courageous faithful life in Christ. People will take note of your behavior. They will take note of your character. They will even take note of your acquaintances, particularly when they know that you walk with Jesus.

Astonish someone!
