"But Peter looked intently at him, as did John, and said, "Look at us." He paid attention to them, expecting to receive something from them." Acts 3:4-5
How many times had Peter and John walk past this crippled beggar and pay him no mind. Today they stop and give him their undivided attention. The beggar took notice and knew this was different, he had expectancy in his spirit. How many beggars do we each walk past in our lives and pay them no mind. Do we give of ourselves or do we just see the same person that has been in the same area for a long time. Peter and John, had received Jesus, now they could see. Jesus never walked past someone in need. The beggar had the desire to change, he wanted what Peter and John had and he received Jesus. From sinner to saint, we are each on that journey, if we can see. Do we have expectancy?
Dear Lord, help me see, Amen.
Mary, Virgin Most Prudent, pray for us.
