The David Spoon Experience

What a show! Noelle joins David in the studio...but just to say "Hi."

1) As we get closer to finishing the Book of Acts, we pick it up in chapter 27, starting with verse 37. After Paul’s speech, everybody was encouraged, which ought to tell each and every one of us that our words, even in the most dire situations we face, can help people. Remember, death and life are in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21). So when things are looking kind of yucky, a good word makes a big difference.

2) There are 276 people, and they begin eating and lighting up the ship so they can see what’s coming. I will take advantage of this text to point out that sometimes we have too much stuff on our ship. You have to eat what you need to sustain, but many of us carry a lot of extra baggage that we don’t need. Here’s a good word for you: stuff that you really don’t need in your life, you should throw overboard. It’s just going to weigh us down anyway.

3) As they’re cruising along, they find a bay with a beach, and they’re hoping to get there, but they have to steer between the rocks in order to make it safely to shore. They drop the anchors and let it roll, which is a nice lesson for us to understand that sometimes you have to drop what’s holding you back. Let the wind take you where it will and trust that the Lord will get you to safety.
