Ever-Widening Circles

• Acts 6:7 (NLT)

---

I love the imagery here, when combine with Jesus imagery of the Kingdom of God being like a mustard seed--it starts off as a tiny seed--among the very smallest on the planet--and slowly grows to become a giant plant. That was true in the early Church. It started with the twelve, then the seventy, then 3,000 and steadily grew to the place where the very record of time on our planet is defined by the life of Jesus. That is how the Kingdom grows.

I can only trust that the Kingdom of God is in the same process here where I live. The Gospel is being preached in ever-widening circles and the number of disciples is going to greatly increase, and many from the counterfeit priesthood will be converted.

God, I thank You for bringing my family here for such a time as this. Use me to extend Your Kingdom.

In Jesus' Name, Amen!
