Let's be willing to learn

Acts 5:10-11

At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
11 Great fear seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.

           One of the finest man of God I have met was the founder of the seminary where I did my Bachelors. He would come to chapel whenever he was in campus. He is the finest of the preachers and a great Bible scholar. But whenever he would sit down in the pews and whoever it was preaching, he would take notes. He is always willing to learn. A sign of a great leader.

                   When Ananias and Sapphira went wrong by being hypocrites they lost their lives. People could have easily become judgmental and curse them. Instead, the Church was seized with great fear. They took this as an opportunity to learn and realize that we can go wrong anytime. So let's be on our guard.

                 When we see people in mess. Its not the time for us to justify the situation or condemn them. We just can't explain it. We are no one to explain it. Probably it can be used as a  learning experience. Let's be willing to learn.
