Thought for Wednesday April 20


O God, let all the nations praise you!
May the nations be glad and exult
because you rule the peoples in equity;
the nations on the earth you guide.
O God, let all the nations praise you!

Acts 12: 23 – 13: 5  Now there were in the Church at Antioch prophets and teachers:  Barnabas, Symeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who was a close friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.  While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”  Then, completing their fasting and prayer, they laid hands on them and sent them off.

How would I feel about being singled out like Saul and Barnabas?  How would I feel if I were not one of the ones God called for his special job?

Action:  Do the work God is calling you to do – even if it is really dull.
