Devotion:
Read Acts 9:1-6.
Over the years of my faith journey, the story of Saul’s conversion has been one of the most impactful for me. He was so convinced of his beliefs and understanding about God. In the case of Jesus, he was so sure that he was not the Messiah that he was willing to go on a crusade to destroy his movement. When he discovered he was wrong, he had to do some major renovations in his life. He went on to become a most influential leader for the mission of Christ, converting many people to follow Jesus, starting many churches and writing several letters that became part of our Bible.
God sometimes invites us to do some renovating of our “faith house,” our own collection of beliefs and ways of thinking about God and what it means to be God’s people. Sometimes the renovations are slight and sometimes they are major. The key is to stay connected to both the Spirit and other Christians as we “learn to live the way of Jesus Christ and invite all to follow him.”
