Anyone who fears Him and does what is right?

"...God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right." Acts 10:34,35


Surely O God, You are the creator of all the earth and of all mankind. Surely, You are the Holy and Wise One who sees and knows all, and yet, wonder of wonders, You are also the Loving One who cares and has compassion on us, frail children of dust.

Today, are there any who fear You and do what is right? Cornelius was one in the time of the early church, and there were many others too. Today, here in Malaysia, are there any? You know, Lord, and You will bless them wherever and whoever they may be, and grant them to come to Your salvation. Surely there are, and surely O Lord, You will bless them.

And grant that You may use Your children, as You did Peter and the other disciples, to be that channel of blessing for these precious ones You are seeking. And for us too, grant that we may fear You, revere You in the heart always, and do what is right, and be prepared to give an answer to those who inquire of our hope, to "always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear" (1 Peter 3:15)
