God's incomprehensible Choice
Acts 9:3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:
Saul's choice as a vessel through which the Gospel would get to the gentiles remains mysterious. He was a multilingual legal luminary, Pharisee and member of the Sanhedrin, who was serious employing his credentials and other resources to torment the people of the way with impunity.
He confessed that he was once a blasphemer (Gal. 1:13). One thing was however evident at the spot of his call; a light from heaven flashed around him (Act 9:3). The light is Jesus, the light that pricks the sinner's heart. Breaking him down in the awesome presence of the most High God.
Do you know that despite the fact that you are in the day light, you need this flash from heaven. That flash from heaven became Saul's turning pont from darkness to light. Indeed, the real light that shines in the darkness of the world enveloped him.
Just like Paul needed divine light even when he was in the day light, you also need the light of the Gospel of Christ to brighten your endeavours for your life to be meaningful today and always.
Remember, those who live by the divine light shall not contend with the darkness of the world. The world is filled with Satan's darkness.
Anyone who is without Christ gropes in the dark, whether he/she knows or not. It is better for you to come to Jesus now so that His light will illuminate your life. He is waiting for you now.
There is life for a look at the crucified one
There is life at the moment for thee
Then, look, sinner unto Him and be saved
Unto Him who was nailed to the three.
God bless you.
