PASSAGE: Through Macedonia and Greece, Eutychus Raised From the Dead at Troas, Paul's Farewell to the Ephesian Elders
MEMORY VERSE: "However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me--the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace" Acts 20:24
NOTES: (v.1-12) Paul went through macedonia and arrived in Greece, speaking many words of encouragement. Since the Jews were plotted against him, he went back through Macedonia to Syria. On the first day of the week, Paul was preaching and spoke until midnight, as he had to leave the next day. A man named Eutychus, who was seated next to a window, fell asleep and fell from the third story and was picked up dead. Paul, however, put his arms around him and told the people that he is alive Then he went upstairs and broke bread and ate. They people took the man home alive, and were greatly comforted.
-(v.13-38) Paul was in a hurry to Jerusalem, and spoke to the church of Ephesus: "And now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there. I only know that in every city the Holy Spirit warns me that prison and hardships are facing me." He warns the people of future hardships, and prayed with them.
"It is more blessed to give than to receive."
"What greived them the most was his statement that they would never see his face again."
ACT OF LOVE: Today in art class, I noticed some miscellaneous pieces of trash on the floor while we were getting ready to leave. I decided to pick it up even though it wasn't really mine haha. The end! :)
