Acts 11:23 Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would cleave unto the Lord.
Now Barnabas had come to Jerusalem and found much to be glad about. The Christians there had received the grace of God. I can just imagine what joy this Barnabas felt. When you are a receiver of the grace of God there is joy, because this is what is referred to as "the joy of our salvation." You do not have this except that the Holy Spirit reveal it to you . When you find others who have rececived this grace , you are glad. This grace receiving , seems to be an unfolding experience. However there is a time, when you begin. I would like to find some people like Barnabas did . People who had received the grace of God.
