The apostles come back from being on trial and the first thing they do is pray for God to be glorified. Would that be your first thing to pray for? We need to remember that God has a plan for reality and we, like the apostles in today's passage, need to set ourselves aside and seek out God's will, no matter what the consequences to ourselves may be.

From Series: "Acts: The Living Witness of Jesus"

While history has traditionally seen Acts simply as stories about the Apostles – we now see the book is so much more. It is certainly an account of the eleven disciples after Jesus is raised from the dead, but even more so, it is an account of the early Christians: an account of the Holy spirit, an account of the early church, and most significantly, the account of the continued work of Jesus Christ and God Himself, bringing His living witness to the ends of the Earth through His people. So, come join us this year as we explore how the Gospel of Christ first changed the world, and as we ourselves learn what it means to let that same gospel change our lives and our world, even today.

Before the angel visited Mary to tell her about being the mom of Jesus, what do you think she was wanting for her life? It probably didn't include getting pregnant before being married. However, Mary's response was acceptance to God's will for her life. We can learn a lot from Mary's attitude toward what God wanted for her life and her open-handed response to Him.

Scripture References: Luke 1:26-38, Matthew 6:31-32
