When it comes to life as a believer, we basically have two options. The easy way or the hard way. We either decide to obey God (the easy way) or we decide to disobey God (the hard way). There are numerous characters throughout the Bible that embody this reality but in our study of the book of Acts we find this situation right in front of us. God commanded the early believers to go out and be His witnesses to the ends of the earth. They did a great job of doing this in Jerusalem but stopped short when it came to the regions of Judea and Samaria. So God did what any good parent would do and lovingly made his children behave appropriately. God is a wonderful heavenly Father and He does not want us to miss out on the pleasure of our purpose, or the reward of obedience. So, He gives us a gentle reminder. What is He reminding you of today? Something He told you to do that you are not doing? Or something that He told you not to do that you are doing?
