When the crowd heard this, they were deeply troubled. They said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what should we do?” Peter replied, “Change your hearts and lives. Each of you must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. This promise is for you, your children, and for all who are far away—as many as the Lord our God invites.” With many other words he testified to them and encouraged them, saying, “Be saved from this perverse generation.” Those who accepted Peter’s message were baptized. God brought about three thousand people into the community on that day. The believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, to the community, to their shared meals, and to their prayers. (Acts 2:37-42, CEB)
What are you devoted to?
What is it that makes you get out of bed every day?
Here people heard the good news of Jesus and asked what they had to do, and it says those you believed devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, to the community, to eating together, and to praying.
You need to be devoted to learning more about your faith, being a part of a community of believers, eating and sharing table fellowship with them, and praying.
Easy!
So be devoted to those things and watch what God does.
Loving People. Loving God.
