Nothing Can Separate

Joel Wood

In Acts 27-28 we see death knocking at Paul’s doorstep, first in the form of a storm at sea, then in the form of soldiers that conspire to kill him, and finally in the form of a poisonous snake that bites him! And yet we discover that nothing can separate Paul from God’s love for him and God’s plan for his life. The same reality is true for us as followers of Christ today. Though we know that our lives will involve passing through stormy seas, we find hope in God’s Word, God’s sovereign hand, and God’s healing promises. We can live knowing that nothing can separate us from God’s love and plan, not even death. This gives us courage when we feel weak and hope when all feels lost just as it did for Paul.

Acts 27-28:16

Tested and Tried

Kyle Kauffman

Paul finds himself in the midst of a situation that could easily cause anyone to buckle. He is being accused and put on trial before some of the most powerful political rulers who are able to determine his fate. Yet we see Paul remain faithful to Christ and remain faithful to proclaiming the gospel even in the face of such a stressful situation. We know that as disciples we too will walk through distressing situations and circumstances in this life. What we find in the story of Paul can supply us with encouragement and wisdom for how we can face those situations with confidence that God will carry us through them.

Acts 24-26
