Acts 8-9
In the span of just a few verses the course of the early church will completely changed. Saul who was killing and imprisoning Christians by the dozens full is now confronted by the very Jesus he is persecuting. Saul discovers that his obedience has been to the wrong thing and he is actually going against the very God he desires to serve. Immediately Saul who now is known a Paul begins to preach about Jesus to all people he encounters. He is on fire! What would you do if you discovered that you were actually opposing God rather then obeying him? I pray that I am being obedient to the Cross and to the God in whom I love. If you feel like you are against God repent today and get on the right side.
Tomorrow's reading: Acts 10-12
