Thought for Monday May 14

The Lord will give him a seat with the leaders of his people.
From the rising to the setting of the sun
is the name of the LORD to be praised.
High above all nations is the LORD;
above the heavens is his glory.
The Lord will give him a seat with the leaders of his people.

Acts 1: 15 – 26  Therefore, it is necessary that one of the men who accompanied us the whole time the Lord Jesus came and went among us, beginning from the baptism of John until the day on which he was taken up from us, become with us a witness to his resurrection…So they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also known as Justus, and Matthias… Then they gave lots to them, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was counted with the Eleven Apostles.

How would I respond if I were the one chosen to replace Judas?  How would I respond if I had been with them the whole time and still wasn’t chosen?

Action:  Step up and do the best you can in whatever circumstance you are in.
