8-21-2014 Acts 26:12-15
S. 12
Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief
priests,13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the
brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with
me.14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto
me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is
hard for thee to kick against the pricks.15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And
he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
O. Paul
is on a journey to Damascus to arrest Christians and it is at this time he
encounters Jesus.
A. I
have encountered Jesus and I know what Paul was talking about. When you meet
Jesus you are forced to make a choice. Will you believe or will you turn away?
Will you embrace or reject? I believe and embrace Jesus! I trade my sin for
forgiveness, my shame for joy and my soul for salvation. I am no longer my own,
I am his.
P. Father;
I am yours; I seek to do your will as I surrender my entire being to you. Amen.
