Beyond the Gospels: Acts

Today's Reading: Acts 8:9-25
(Click on the link to read today's scripture.)

Simon the wizard is now Simon the Believer. Just when you think his life of tricking people for money is over it shows itself again. He wants what Peter has. He wants to be able to do the things Peter is doing. This power would put him over the top... make him so much money.

Peter realizes it and says, "I can see this is an old habit with you."

Some things just hang on. Old habits are hard to break and sometimes we don't even realize what we are doing. What old habit seems to be hanging around you lately? What is God calling you to do with this old thing?

Lord, cleanse me completely of all the shadows
and habits of my past unbelief.
