What grace was it that could lead the Saviour's heart to speak to such a man as Saul,    who had breathed out threatenings against His church? Had he not haled men and women to prison?? Had he not compelled them in every synagogue to blaspheme the name of Jesus Christ?Oh but the transforming work of God! —and quite radical!!.   Through a personal encounter with Jesus, this man named Saul is transformed from Christianity’s fiercest opponent into its most devoted missionary. This is what God does in conversion. He changes people.Do we agree that Saul was most probably the greatest of the apostles? Can we agree he saw his life turned upside down! Here is a scary thought: this may be, in some ways, a pattern for your life. (Paul said that his conversion and calling was a pattern for all of us. 1Timothy 1:16) If so, I want to leave you with hope regarding what God is doing. Are you are trying hard to serve Jesus and often opposed, experience rejection and mocking or suffering strange or irregular events: have you been waiting for God to show up and make things right? Know this; God chose Saul to suffer many things to bear His name before kings!“It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until he has hurt him deeply.” A. W.
