Acts 18, 365 DAYS OF LOVE #56: ENCOURAGEMENT

PASSAGE: In Corinth, Priscilla, Aquila, and Apollos

MEMORY VERSE: review

NOTES: (v.1-17) Paul went to Corinth and preached to the Jews, but began preaching to the Gentiles after they opposed him. One night, the Lord said to Paul in a vision, "Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent. For I am with you, and no one is going to attack and harm you, because I have many people in this city." The Jews attacked Paul and brought him to court, but the proconsul told him that they should settle the matter themselves, and so they were ejected from the court.
-(v.18-28) Paul then went to Syria, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila. After they went to Ephesus, and left for Antioch. A Jew named Apollos, who had thorough knowledge of Scriptures, began to speak boldly in the synagogue. Priscilla and Aquila invited him into their home and explained to him the way of God more adequately. He went to Achaia, where he vigorously refuted the Jews in public debate.

ACT OF LOVE: Today, my act of love was encouraging various people in different ways. Some were more small, on-the-surface encouragements (asking about people's day, talking to people who seemed outcast), while others went more in depth. All in all, it was a very encouraging day! I was also encouraged ALOT in turn! What a great cycle =)
