"Then news [that there were many converts in Antioch] came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch. When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad and encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord. For he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord."
Acts 11:23-25
I am a #1 fan of Barnabas. Of all the men in the Bible, besides Jesus, he is the one I would like to model – an encourager, a good man, full of faith, and full of the Holy Spirit. He was an encourager and discipler, who took new believers and strengthened their "purpose of heart" to walk with Jesus. Hurrah for Barnabas!!!
Today's Thought: A good model is a good man, full of faith and of the Holy Spirit.
Have a good day. Love you.
