Now
a certain man named Simon had previously practiced magic in the city and amazed
the people of Samaria, saying that he was someone great. All of them, from the
least to the greatest, listened to him eagerly, saying, “This man is the power
of God that is called Great.” And they listened eagerly to him because for a
long time he had amazed them with his magic.
But when they believed Philip, who was
proclaiming the good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus
Christ, they were baptised, both men and women. Even Simon himself believed.
After being baptised, he stayed constantly with Philip and was amazed when he
saw the signs and great miracles that took place. (Acts 8:9-13, NRSV)
What good news led to your baptism?
What is the good news that you proclaim to others now? Pray that your life and
witness is always good news to those around you.
(Gentle reminder: Lent does not include Sundays.)
