November 28, 2010 (Acts 20-28)

I haven't been very faithful about blogging. So pretty much all of Romans is unrecorded. I guess I just start again today. Pretty much this short blog will be based on Chapter 20:

²⁴ But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.

Do I feel that way? Is my life worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned to me? Is the problem that I'm not sure what my assignment is? I guess all of us have the assignment of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.

Paul had a profound dependance upon God as evidenced by this next verse:

³² “And now I entrust you to God and the message of his grace that is able to build you up and give you an inheritance with all those he has set apart for himself.

That's pretty much all that any of us can do with the events/people in our lives - entrust them to God and the message of His grace. God help us to do just that.
