Having been with Jesus

¹³ Now as they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus.  Acts 4:13

Could there ever be a higher compliment given to any of us.  They began to recognize them as having been with Jesus.  O FatherGod, we pray that as people observe us, listen to us and see how we live our lives, they would begin to recognize us as having been with Jesus.  I pray that as people observe me, as they did Peter and John, and understand that I am an uneducated and untrained woman, may they be amazed at what You, Jesus, can do in a life that is surrendered, a life that is yielded.  You have completely changed my world, Jesus.  I thought my life was ruined, but You stepped in and took this ruined life, and made me completely whole.  You took the brokenness, the loneliness, the loss, the instability, the anxiety, the confusion, the pain.  You took it all, bore it all, redeemed it all.  You truly are the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being that which does not exist.  I praise You, Dearest Father, Savior Jesus, and Precious Holy Spirit.   The Greatest thing that could ever be said about me, is that “I can tell, she has been with Jesus.”  Make it so, Dearest Lord.  Amen and Amen
