Acts 4:8-13 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,
9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;
10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.
KJV
What is it that people notice about you or what you want people to notice about you? Peter and John were in a fishing business before they met Jesus and I am sure they would have been known around the fish markets and such. I wonder though if there were known apart from that? But after they had been with Jesus they were known for that and it caused others to marvel, people noticed. What do you want to be known for, to be noticed for? For some it is the fancy car they drive and they place great value on that car. For some it is the clothes they were and they place great value in them. For some it is the new house they have with the pool and all the newest things and they place great value in that. But what do you want to be noticed for? All the above things will wear away or rust out over time. Even houses get old and need repaired. But what of Jesus? To be noticed because you are with Jesus, because you are saved, because you walk with Jesus Christ is that which will never grow old or wear out. Want to be noticed for something lasting? Then come to Jesus dear one, be born again and have a new life in Christ. People will notice the change in you and they will marvel that you have been and are with Jesus.
