Philips credentials
May 29, 2020
Changing, challenging times. We are all required to flex, to change. For most of us, we don’t like change. We like familiar. That’s over. What will God ask of you and I for tomorrow? Even today? Will we have the credentials to do what we will be called to do?
Consider the 7 newly called deacons in Acts 6: 3. Growth created a problem. Many poor widows in the church needed to be fed. Some were served better than others. The men selected to correct this had three credentials: good standing, full of the Spirit, and of wisdom.
Today our character is showing. Our dependence on the Holy Spirit guiding us for faith filled day to day behavior. Wisdom to not be impulsive, reactive, self focused. These are our credentials for whatever tomorrow brings.
