Acts 9:26-43, "God is Always, Already Working"

Barnabas vouches for the newly converted Saul, and the wary Jerusalem believers receive him before sending him off to years of quiet waiting in Tarsus. The church enjoys peace and grows, and Peter travels on to Lydda, where he speaks healing over the paralyzed Aeneas, then to Joppa, where he calls Tabitha back to life. In both accounts, the breakthrough moment sits atop groundwork already laid before anyone arrived on the scene. Where might God already be at work in a season of your life that feels more like waiting than progress?
