“When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschoooled ordinary men, they were astonished and took note that these men had been with Jesus.” Acts 4:13
This is a compelling statement. It challenges me to think about how much time have I spent with Jesus, and does it make a noticeable difference in my life. It makes me think about all the different situations that in which the disciples walked with Jesus. The time spent listening to his preaching, seeing people healed, seeing people respond to the call of Jesus. Then there is the thought of what happens when you offer a cup of water to someone , feed the hungry, visit those in prison, heal the sick (Matt 10:37-42). Where do I spend my time? In the end, would we rather be known by our education or by the time we spent with Jesus?
