Make a Wish

Make a wish

No, I'm not suggesting that you wish on a star. Nor am I inferring it's time to wish after blowing out flickering birthday cake candles.

Instead, I speak of a great concern for the lost.

"King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know you believe.' Then Agrippa said to Paul, 'Are you going to persuade me to become a Christian so easily?' 'I wish before God,' replied Paul, 'that whether easily or with difficulty, not only you but all who listen to me today might become as I amexcept for these chains (Acts 26:27-29 HCS)."

The Apostle Paul was persistent and passionate in his witness. He was not twisting the king's arm but he was trying to persuade him to place his trust in the resurrected Christ. Paul was wishing but his hope rested in God. He had a burden for the lost, both Jew and Gentile.

"Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God concerning them is for their salvation (Romans 10:1 HCS)!"
