Paul and Silas were imprisoned because they shared the gospel of Jesus Christ, which angered corrupt business and city leaders. Let’s consider a few highlights in this passage:
Peter and Silas shared their trust in Jesus with the jailer. Whom will you share Jesus with?
Do your circumstances dictate your attitude? Are you praying and singing even in the dark times?
Do you really believe the gospel is for all people? Ask the Lord to remind you of someone who is “different” than you (nationality, age, background, employment, color, etc.) so you can share the gospel life and love with that person.
Lord God,
We admit our tendency to see and respond to circumstances and people with our own perceptions and understandings. Father, please help us to see in the dark times and respond with the hope and grace and love that Jesus poured into our lives.
Amen
