A GREAT LESSON
Acts 5:1: “Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira also sold a piece of property. With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the Apostles feet.” There was nothing wrong in what they conspired to do except for the fact that all were doing the same thing and sharing all their possessions with everyone. As a result of deceiving the disciples, they died instantly.
The lesson to be learned here is when we do or say something, are we considering the fact that we are in His presence? We cannot see God but He is omnipresent, therefore He is everywhere simultaneously and that includes being with us at all times.
Personally I find myself, at times, at odds with a proposed action or something to say resulting in my awareness of God’s presence. Please note I am not an angel and am certainly not perfect. I struggle as we all do but it’s nice to be reminded at times of our behavior, (My wife does a terrific job on me in this area).
PS Faith + Jesus =’s Salvation.
