Daily Walk Through the New Testament
October 15
Read Acts 20:7-38

We can see the heart of Paul very clearly in this passage. Out of necessity he had to leave the church he loved on order to take the gospel to those who had never heard. Paul poured out his life with all humility to testify to the gospel of grace (Acts 20:19). Why the dedication? Why the passion? Perhaps it was because he never got over his salvation. The same humility that brought him to the foot of the cross on the Damascus Road compelled hm to stay near that cross, embrace the gospel (20:20), and finish well (2 Timothy 4:7). He said, “God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Galatians 6:14).
What about you? Where is your passion? Find it at the foot of the cross.
