"Then he said to them, 'You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has show me that I should not call any man common or unclean" (Acts 10:28 NKJV).
Through a marvelous triple vision from Heaven, God had shown Peter that the Gentiles were fit company for Jews - and that God was not a respector of persons or nations. It took Peter awhile to grasp this truth, but once he did, he proclaimed it to all.
What has God show you lately? Has He revealed to you some truth in His Word that you need to apply to your daily life - even thought it might be hard to put into practice? For a Jew to suddenly start dining with a Gentile was revolutionary stuff! If God has shown you throught the light of His Word what you should do, be like Peter and admit that God has shown you a new way to live.
Song: When we walk with the Lord, in the light of His word, what a glory He sheds on our way! While we do His good will, He abides with us still, and with all who will trust and obey. (John H. Sammis).
