Common Grace Everywhere

God is such a wonderfully gracious God. I was reading in Acts and came across this passage. These verses remind me of God's great goodness and kindness towards people - intending that goodness to lead them to repentance (Rom. 2:4).

In past generations [God] allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways. Yet he did not leave himself without witness, for he did good by giving you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with food and gladness. (Acts 14:16-17)

To me, these words are hugely encouraging. What are your thoughts?
