I know you!
Commentary
To know and to be known are important to our well-being. In these three scriptures we receive recognition from God, the community of faith, and ourselves. In the Acts of the Apostles, Tabitha is recognized for her ministries through the lamentations of those who mourn her. She hears her name being called and is raised from the dead. And the result is not that believers focus on Peter and praise him, but that people come to recognize God who is the source of the miracle. They believe in the Lord.
