DAILY?READINGS: Ezra 8; Daniel 9; Revelation 4
He was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem. Acts 9:28
The believers at Jerusalem were understandably reluctant to receive Saul of Tarsus into their fellowship and trust until reassured by their mutual friend Barnabas. Saul joined the church and was a model of consistency and support. Now, having been against them, he was with them both in coming in and going out; perhaps going in to worship and going out to service. We, like him, should be humble, realizing that our fellowship with the saints should not be viewed as a right but as a privilege. This gives us the opportunities of participation in worship and service to God’s glory—coming in and going out. —Roy Hill
So shall no part of day or night, from sacredness be free;
But all my life, in every step, be fellowship with Thee. —H. Bonar
