DECEMBER 25, Acts 22:1-10

“What shall I do, Lord?” These words of Paul are what every Christian should ask the Lord. First, Jesus must be the Lord of our lives. We call Jesus “Lord” often, but do we mean what we say?

Next, we are to ask God what he wants us to do. Now God or Jesus does not talk to us the way Jesus did when He was on earth. He does not speak to us in an audible voice, but speaks to us through the written Word – the Bible!

Paul was transformed and that is why he could ask God what He wanted him to do. May we follow Paul! Here is a snapshot of Paul’s life:

• Before conversion - He was a student of Gamaliel who was the best teacher and scholar of Judaism at that time. Paul knew the Old Testament and law inside-out and practised Judaism zealously. Paul was also the chief persecutor of the church. He hated Christians.
• At conversion - On the way to Damascus, he met Christ and was saved.
• After conversion – God chose him to be a missionary to the Gentiles and he gave his life to this calling.
