[After Peter's vision and Cornelius' messengers asking for him,] Peter went down and said, "I'm the man you are looking for. Why have you come?"
They said, "We were sent by Cornelius, a Roman officer. He is a devout and God-fearing man, well respected by all the Jews. A holy angel instructed him to summon you to his house so that he can hear your message." So Peter invited the men to stay for the night. The next day he went with them, accompanied by some of the brothers from Joppa.
O, dear Father, I fear that I often make things so much more complicated than they need to be. I ask for the Holy Spirit's help in discerning where you want me to go, what you want me to do, and when you want me to do it. Lord Jesus, I pledge to be kind and hospitable to those you send my way so that I can be useful to you and those seeking to find you. I ask for the Spirit's guidance and make this commitment to bring honor to you, my Redeemer and Rock, O God, made known as Father, Son, and Spirit. Amen.
