Here is today’s Bible reading:  1 Chronicles 2:18-4:4; Acts 24:1-27; Psalm 4:1-8; Proverbs 18:16-18.

Proverbs 18:17 (NIV)
The first to present his case seems right,
till another comes forward and questions him.

So true. We can be so quick to form opinions and jump to conclusions without hearing the whole story. There are always two sides.

Acts 24:24-27 (NIV)
Several days later Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was a Jewess. He sent for Paul and listened to him as he spoke about faith in Christ Jesus. [25] As Paul discoursed on righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come, Felix was afraid and said, “That’s enough for now! You may leave. When I find it convenient, I will send for you.” [26] At the same time he was hoping that Paul would offer him a bribe, so he sent for him frequently and talked with him.
[27] When two years had passed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, but because Felix wanted to grant a favor to the Jews, he left Paul in prison.

What ever became of Felix?  Did he believe? Or did he miss out on the salvation that was staring him right in the face?
