May 31

Acts 7

In chapter 6 Stephen was one of the group appointed to take care of the food distribution. He ends up dying as a martyr after sharing his faith. God may give us gifts to take care of a task, like the distribution of food, but there are moments when God calls us to serve in a manner that has nothing to do with our gifts. We are the right person in the perfect moment to serve God. I think this is what happens to Stephen. His role is to serve food, but God needs him to bear witness to how God had acted through Jesus.
