While he clung to Peter and John, all the people, utterly astounded, ran together to them in the portico called Solomon’s. And when Peter saw it he addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why do you wonder at this, or why do you stare at us, as though by our own power or piety we have made him walk? The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified his servant Jesus, whom you delivered over and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release him. But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you, and you killed the Author of life, whom God raised from the dead. To this we are witnesses. And his name—by faith in his name—has made this man strong whom you see and know, and the faith that is through Jesus has given the man this perfect health in the presence of you all. (Acts 3:11-16 ESV)
What are you a witness to?
Is your life pointing toward something that society doesn’t recognize?
Do you live in such a way that people point in stare and ask questions about why you do the things you do?
Do you live in such a way that the gospel emanates from your life?
Our lives are to be different. We are supposed to live in a way that points people to God into the love that we have through him. We are the light in the salt to this world. We are the hands and feet of God. We are the ones who are the witnesses to his love to this world. So if your life is not drawing attention to the love that you’ve been given then I ask to what are you a witness?
