Acts 10:1-8

It's incredible to me how people in the Bible respond to God's directions.  Almost always they obey immediately.  They don't sit around and wait for confirmation, they go ahead and start doing what they need to do.  
I know some of those stories are different than how God usually speaks today, but people seem to never react the same way now.  When we feel like God has spoken to us, we sit around, we study, we pray, we talk to people, we make sure everything makes sense, and then we obey.  I bet God finds that pretty frustrating.  I love when I tell my son something once and he does exactly what I asked rather than having to explain why.  JM
