—Acts 10:23-33
by: Benjamin Uhlich.
I do not generally like being told what to do. Maybe I am just too stubborn, but if I do not know why I should or shouldn’t do something, then I have little interest in following those orders. For that reason, following God’s calling can be difficult and scary. When I am called somewhere unfamiliar, I get a bit anxious and resistant, but it is so much harder when I do not know what the entire goal is. In this passage, Peter followed God’s calling to visit with Cornelius without knowing the reason. I strive to be so firm in my faith that I will listen to God without flinching or questioning.
