THOUGHT FOR TODAY: CLOSING THE GAPS Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God. Acts 5:4. In the book of Acts we read about Ananias & Sapphira, who did have a gap between what they wanted to be known for & who they really were (5:1-11). Satan filled their hearts with a deceptive plan. They sold a piece of property & brought just a portion of the money to the apostles, while pretending they were giving all the proceeds. They wanted to be recognized as a generous couple, but they were not what they appeared to be. This gap caused them to lie to the Holy Spirit & to the faith community. They paid a terrible price---death. Their example stands as a stark warning to us all. What discrepancies have we permitted in our lives? We must confess them & close the gaps...Lord, by Your Spirit grant that we May live with such integrity That when we simply give our word No one will doubt what has been heard. As God order your steps & blessings this weekend, know that integrity means never having to look over your shoulder. CLOSING THE GAPS.
