Surprisingly Safe

“…and so it happened that they all were brought safely to land.” (Acts 27:44)

Two weeks of violent wind, bitter waves, and darkness without a star in the sky.  Two weeks where hope was slowly abandoned along with all the ship’s tackle, the storehouses of food, and cargo.  Two weeks of 276 souls feeling desperately alone and without a chance of salvation.

No one could have imagined how God could work it out, but God did.  Leave the salvation to Him.  You focus on keeping the faith.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites

Today’s Reading: Acts 27:33-44

Questions to ask:

1. How does this show the continuation of Jesus’ work now going on in the church?
2. How is the gospel, Paul’s preaching, and/or Paul’s defense received?
3. What is the Holy Spirit doing in this text?
4. What in our reading shows how Paul handled adversity and difficulty?

This year, #Biblebites are following the life and writings of Paul.  If you would like a copy of the reading schedule, you can view it here: https://eastlandchristians.org/news-events/2023-vision
