“In those days: A great number that believed turned to the Lord. News of this came to the ears of the Church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. When he came and saw he grace of God, he was glad; and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast purpose; for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith.” St Basil the Great said, “The soul is perfected by the Holy Spirit; He makes it good and pleasing to God.”
Let us pray, Lord Jesus, make us faithful and trustworthy servants in Your vineyard. Let our lives bear witness to Your goodness, so that others may confidently call upon us to carry out the work You have prepared for us. Fill us with the grace of Your Holy Spirit, that, like Barnabas, we may be known as people of goodness, faith, and wisdom. May our example inspire others and bring glory to Your holy name. Amen. “Let your
light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
