—Acts 22:3-16
by: Angie Osborn.
In the NIV translation, verse 16 says, “…what are you waiting for? Get up be baptized, and wash your sins away, calling on his name.” I found that wording humorous and sobering at the same time. It was funny because it felt so current, “What are you waiting for?” The sobering thing was the conviction that came on my heart as I read it, what am I waiting for? So often I am guilty of waiting to share my faith—waiting for someone to approach me, waiting for just the right timing…
We need to get busy and stop waiting—what are you waiting for?
