Acts 9:1-6

Thoughts:          “And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord ….”
 
Instantly, we have a vivid picture of a man consumed with fury against the Christians.  He is ready to travel from Jerusalem to Damascus – 135 miles – to ferret out Christians and bring them back to Jerusalem to be put to death.
 
But during his journey, a light from heaven shines down on Saul, and he falls to the ground.  He hears a voice saying, “Saul, Saul, why persecuteth thou me?”
 
Saul has no flippant or defiant answer.  Instead, he asks humbly, ” Who art thou, Lord?”
 
He already knows.
 
Discussion:        How does Saul instinctively know it is the Lord?

 
Activity:              Listen for the Lord’s voice today.

Remember in prayer this week Martha Blair, Jackie Braidwood, Vivian Hansard, Eunice and Bill Kraase, and June Lamm.
