Acts 10: 1 - 23

While Cornelius didn't know Jesus personally or even the existence of Him, he was still wholeheartedly pursuing God as well as generous to those he commanded. I think the lesson here is that God will reach out to everyone who seeks Him no matter the circumstances of culture. This did make me think a little, did I cut off people I loved because I wanted to be closer to God or because I wanted a family that wouldn't get me in jail. Am I truly a selfish traitor at heart like people say? Sometimes I don't know the answer. I sure as hell hope my faith in God is genuine despite my flawed character. Surely I would have expected a lot more things to have changed by now but I'm still the same retard I was 2years ago. God is greater than my weaknesses and insecurities, I'm aware of that but I hope that I can adapt a sincere and desperate heart like Cornelius.

Prayer points:
-reflect on what God can do through me rather than my own depravity
-have reassurance on the faithfulness of God. He will provide everything I need if I earnestly seek Him
