Out of My Limitation into God's Infinity

[S] Acts 10:19-20 --
19 While Peter was reflecting on the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men are looking for you.20 But get up, go downstairs and accompany them without misgivings, for I have sent them Myself."

[O] The fact that angel of God sent Peter whose obedience caused the works of the Spirit to explode in the midst of the Gentiles is significant for me here because even though the angel go there himself and do this he chose Peter as the instrument to carry out this task.  It is very intriguing for me to see that while God and angels may not need us, we are still invited into the execution of His plans and it is our obedience which will engage us into the fabric of His plans.

[A] I need to stop separating my own limitations from God's unlimited domain because that will make me smaller and smaller and in the end make me impotent with my life.  God wants me to maximize my life to the fullest the way He designed me so anything short of that is really a sin.

[P] Dear Father, I praise You for making me the way I am and I cannot wait to see how You are going to use me and my family members.  Please continue to nurture us with Your patience so one day We will glorify Your name by being the right instrument as Peter was in this passage.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
