Acts 6
More on being BOLD for Christ today!!!!!
I was very drawn to Stephen today. How God was with him and how favored by God he was. And yet that didn’t make his life all bliss.
God helped Stephen in many special ways. God's power was with him. He did many miracles among the people which showed that God was with him.”
I can think of how often I’m believing I’ve been chosen and am favored and yet so surprised when persecution comes…when attacks come.

“But the Holy Spirit helped Stephen to be very wise when he spoke. So these men could not say that he was wrong.”
Lord make we wise. Help me to speak boldly and confidently and may it bring glory to you.
“All the Jewish leaders who sat there in the meeting looked carefully at Stephen. They saw that his face was very bright, like the face of an angel.”
Acts 6:8, 10, 15 EASY
His complete countenance was different. May people see Jesus in me by even the countenance on my face.
