 ALL WHO HEAR YOU ARE AMAZED

Today's reading: Acts 9-10

"All who heard him were amazed. Isn't his the same man who persecuted Jesus' followers with such devastation in Jerusalem? they asked. And we understand that he came here to arrest them and take them in chains to the leading priests." Acts 9:21 NLT

All they had heard of and knew about Saul, was changed.

They scratched their heads in amazement.

They questioned all they thought they knew.

They revisited his original mission and their first impressions.

May people do the same with us as we grow more and more like Jesus!

I pray they are able to say...

Malinda used to say prayers, now she prays them.

Malinda used to be led by her emotions and her circumstances, now she is led by the Holy Spirit.

Malinda used to read the Bible, but now she devours it and digests it and is changed by it.

Malinda's faith used to be as unstable as a Weeble-Wobble, but now--now she is standing strong on God's promises, believing all He says, expecting Him to work!

Oh, that people would see a difference in us from having had our eyes opened to the wonder and love of God.
