0717. THE SHADOW OF PETER

THE SHADOW OF PETER

"They brought forth the sick into the streets, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow them" (Act_5:15).

Every shadow was not the shadow of Peter. It took two things to make Peter’s shadow-light and his own presence. Wherever Peter went walking in the light he carried with him the influence of his shadow. Every Christian, walking in the light of God, will have a shadow accompanying him. Those who walk in the darkness of doubt will carry no healing virtue with their presence. Alas for those who are aping at somebody else, and losing the power of their own presence. No sick ones will be helped by the shadow (influence) of such hollow pretenders.
