"ARISE AND GO TOWARD THE SOUTH..."


It was time for another trip into Mexico with Bibles and this time we decided to search for churches along the gulf coast south of the Texas border. Before leaving Monday morning February 22nd, we happened to read the scripture in Acts about the angel of the Lord telling Phillip to "Arise and go toward the south..." Acts 8:26. The story goes on to say that the angel told Phillip that he would meet a man there. We don't like to say that God speaks directly to us, but the words from the book of Acts really gripped us and held our interest. Was God confirming that we were to go directly south? Would there be someone there waiting for us? It was exciting to think that something significant might happen, so we wrote the scripture down and decided to wait and see.
