Searching
Acts 17:16-34
Our family is leaving on a trip at noon today, or so we hope. Before we can leave, we must find a rental car. I didn’t think this would be a problem. I called a lot of places and couldn’t find the car we needed. This search was very tiresome. Advantage, Avis, etc. This search of mine reminded me of how people sometimes search for the truth and have a hard time finding it. In Acts 17, Paul spoke to such people in Athens. They were very religious, they liked to listen to and talk about the latest ideas, sounds a lot like today. We all have our own personal searches, wallets, brushes, rental cars, or the truth. Although I’ve found a car, I have yet to pick it up. If all goes well, I should have the car in two hours. The truth is a lot more accessible than a full-size rental car a few days before Memorial Day.
In Christ,
