Monday The Daily Dig – On the road to Gaza (Acts 8:26-40) Isn’t it fascinating and maybe a bit of a rebuke to our “modern” experience how active the unseen world of angels and the Lord’s Spirit is taken for granted in Scripture. There was a porous existence of interactions and obedience to the transcendent Lord. Philip was told to go south in the middle of nowhere and he went. There on a desert road he meets an important official returning from worshiping in Jerusalem. The Treasurer of the Ethiopian Queen Candace had stopped along the road to rest. While sitting in his chariot he began to read a copy of the prophet Isaiah. All of these circumstances were not just coincidences. It all came together as Philip approached this influential man. We would do well to be more aware of those people God puts in our path. For starters we need to at least believe that some people cross our path for a reason.
