oRead Ac. 9:32-43. 9:35,42: "turned to ... believed on the Lord."

What is fundamental here is not the healing or resurrection.  The raising of Dorcas is interesting.  True, she was a good woman and loved by the saints.  But so was Stephen a good man and loved (Acts 7); and James as well (Acts 12).  So why was she raised?  In God's sovereignty He used the signs so that many turned and believed.  Do not ask God for some special power or blessing or gift for yourself.  Rather ask Him that through you many people will turn from themselves and believe in Christ.
