I love the little details like this that highlight the practical ways God uses people. "It’s a small detail, but notice that Dorcas had sewn the clothing that the women were wearing. This isn’t an example of songwriting or slinging a stone and killing a Philistine giant. Dorcas doesn’t have a talent that fills stadiums or spurs fortune. Instead, it appears as though she hand-made beautiful robes and clothing for widows in the early church, a beautiful and hospitable act of kindness for the downtrodden."
Thanks so much, Jake! I appreciate your thoughts and that you read these posts.
Yes, most of us will never grace the cover of Time magazine or appear on TMZ, (I mean I sure hope not!), but all of the interactions we have with others are meaningful. I'm not sure if you've read Bob Goff's book, Love Does, but he has an articulate way of explaining this sort of thing.
