Acts 5:12 Now many signs and wonders were done among the people through the apostles. And they were all together in Solomon’s Portico.
We sometimes act as if Easter were the end. Of course it's the pinnacle, it's the most important event in the history of the world according to our Christian faith. But it's not the end. It's not the end of God's work among God's people. It's not the end of God's power at work in the world.
The book of Acts takes place after Easter. The book of Acts tells us the story of what God's power did in the world through the disciples, through people a lot like you and I. "Many signs and wonders were done among the people through the apostles." It wasn't just Jesus doing signs and wonders. The apostles were doing them too.
It didn't end with the end of the book of Acts either. Signs and wonders are still being done by Jesus' followers today. You just have to open your eyes and know how to look. All around the world and in your neighborhood the hungry and being fed, the weak are being lifted up, and people are working for justice. Signs and wonders, I tell ya!
In Christ,
Pastor Seth
