June 12, First church

I have been reading the first four chapters of Acts a lot this week.  Something really hit me about the first church.  Read the following verses.

Acts 2:44-47
All the believers were together and had everything in common. [45] Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. [46] Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, [47] praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

Did you notice anything different with this church and the majority of churches in America today?

1.  ALL the believers we're together
2.  They we're willing to sell their possessions to help others
3.  Met together every day
4.  Hung out with each other
5.  People getting saved every day

WOW!  Would that not be awesome if we saw this in our church?  I believe with all my heart that was and still is God's desire and plan for the church.  As we continue with "One Prayer" this week, my heart is to reveal God's plan for our church!
