What a sad passage! Felix was well-acquainted with the Way (v. 22) and got to hear first hand from Paul himself. But the bible gives no indication that he ever accepted Christ as his savior. He knew all the stuff... it even scared him to think of God's coming judgment (v. 25), but he didn't take it to heart. All he said was, "When I find it convenient, I will send for you."
When I find it convenient, I will do what God wants me to. I don't want to be like that! If I'm just sitting around waiting for the perfect opportunity when everything is pleasant for me, then I will never do anything for Him. But the truth is that a lot of times I only do what is comfortable and not what I know needs to be done. Lord, help me to follow You at all times no matter the cost...
