Acts 12 - The Miraculous Release

I love how sometimes we read a passage and go "HA! As if!"

So there's a bunch of people who gathered at a house for a special prayer meeting, specifically for Peter's release from prison, and he gets released with the help of an angel but they don't believe it when he's free. It makes all the prayer meetings we do seem like a joke. But I guess it's only when really personal things happen that's when we don't believe. For big things, like if we prayed for church expansion and something miraculous happened and we acquired a new building out of nowhere, that's more believable than if I prayed for my foot and tomorrow it's healed.

I wonder how many times Peter rolled his eyes that night.
