Amazed

The members of the council were amazed when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, for they could see that they were ordinary men with no special training in the scriptures. They also recognized them as men who had been with Jesus (Acts 4:13 NLT)

Today's meditation:

• Ordinary people who have been with Jesus are often called upon to do the extraordinary.

Pray today:

• For boldness to advance the mission of Emmanuel College, for discernment to know what to do, for empowerment to do it.
• For wisdom to know when to speak and when to be silent, to know when to act and when to wait.
• For people around us to see the hand of God in all we do, for current and prospective students to be inspired to enroll at Emmanuel and challenged to obey the Lord, for donors to recognize God's handiwork and invest time, energy and money in obedience to his will.

Pray First in every circumstance, challenge, and choice. Always Pray First!
