Accepted Devotional

Then Peter started speaking: “I now truly understand that God does not show favoritism in dealing with people, but in every nation the person who fears him and does what is right is welcomed before him. Acts 10:34-35, NET 

My Friend…. You are enough!!

There is no one on this earth who can determine your value. Not one person can determine your acceptance into the Kingdom of God. Only God can do that!!!

I am so thankful that I have finally learned this truth. For so many years I walked a shameful walk thinking that unless certain people approved of what I was doing, then I would never be enough for Jesus to met at the well.

How wrong I was!!!

He is so good to meet us where we are and give us the Living Water that our souls need to stay refreshed in His love and grace. He purposely met a woman at the well in order for her to see that she too is acceptable to God… when she accepts the fact that He is the Messiah…. She is accepted!!

God doesn’t show favoritism. He had a plan for a Jew… Jesus.. to meet up with this Samaritan woman. He made a way for her to come to realize her value as His daughter. How much love is that?

Don’t get stuck thinking that your acceptance depends on how much you do for others and their happiness…. No, no, no… let yourself know that your acceptance is based on nothing more that whether or not you want to accept Jesus as the source of your Living Water.

Come my friend.. Let us drink from the well of cool, refreshing, Living Water!!!
