A message based on Acts 9:36-43
When will we stop doubting God? When will we stop being surprised by God doing what God said God would do? When will we stop living lives that doubt God’s word? God said that those who follow his word will experience life everlasting – feed my sheep, take care of those in need. God did not say that those who are “nice” or “good people” will know life everlasting – yet we test God believing that being “good” is “good enough” for God. This story is a stark and vivid reminder…that it is not. Who experienced resurrection? A disciple named Tabitha who was “devoted to good work and acts of charity.”
