We continue this morning in our study through the book of Acts looking at Acts 16:1-15. As we consider the story of Timothy joining Paul and Lila, the Macedonian Call, and the Conversion of Lydia we find three principles that describe and shape what it means to live missionally. We live in accordance and alignment with the missions of God as our decisions are motivated by love. Missional living is not only motivated by love, but marked by the Holy Spirit. Our lives and activities are managed, guided, and directed by the Spirit of God. Thirdly, missional living is made possible by grace. As the Lord opened Lydia's heart to believe, we trust that God in His grace, will continue to initiate, empower, and comfort us as we grow as followers of Jesus and call others to follow Him.
