Acts 8:36 -- On Listening to the Spirit

"And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?"
Acts 8:36


This is a great story about God telling Philip to run and talk to a guy in a chariot, which he does.  The guy is reading the scriptures, and they get into a discussion about what it means, Philip tells him all about Christ, and when they get to some water, the man asks to be baptized.

I love the idea that God leads us to people that are ready to hear the gospel, and all we have to do is open our mouths and share his message.  I wonder how many things the Lord has prepared for us every day, if we would just listen to the spirit and do the equivalent of going and catching up to a few chariots. :)

Today, let's listen to the spirit and be willing to follow whatever instructions God sends us, so that we can meet cool people and have cool conversations with them, and do God's work, as Philip did.
