Meditations

I've been reading the book of Acts in my quiet time and this is one of the passages that I have been struck by lately.

...and when they had called in the apostles, they beat them and charged them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. Then they left the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the name. And every day, in the temple and from house to house, they did not cease teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ. -Acts 5:40-42


Lately I've been noticing how I can easily find contentment in things of this world rather than Christ. God used this passage to point it out to me as I read how the apostles rejoiced that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the name of Christ. Talk about making little of yourself and much of God.
