Tuesday 28 September

Order

Read Acts 20.13-16

“.. He had made this arrangement because he was going there on foot ..’” (Acts 20.13)

These diary notes set out the practical arrangements which were made in the course of the full and demanding life of missionary work. ‘God is not a God of disorder but of peace’ (1 Cor.14.33): the Spirit prompts such careful forward planning in His people.

What factors came into play in the planning of the arrangements recorded here?

If you are rather disorganized and ‘haphazard’ in the way you live your life what steps might you take today to ‘order’ your living better?

Prayer: Almighty God, You order all things wisely and well: may the Spirit-given order in my manner of living proclaim that glory of Your handiwork.
