Acts 10:2
He was a devout, God-fearing man, as was everyone in his household. He gave generously to the poor and prayed regularly to God.
Think how strange it would be to consider Islam or Judaism as being mainly a female faith. “Muslim or Jewish men don’t really get involved in their faith lives.” This just wouldn’t make sense.
Yet, with Christianity there appears, at times, to be a feminization of the faith. At least, this is a lament that goes out in the American Church. Where are all the men?
Cornelius has it right. Men provide a model for all those around them when they honor God. Maybe today, more then ever, men make influential models because it appears so optional in a guy’s life.
Pray for an important male in our life today.
