Grace for your spirit June 18, 2010

Grace for your spirit
They dragged him out of the city and began to stone him. Meanwhile, the witnesses laid their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul, While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit." Acts 7:58-59

On that fateful day, Saul watched his fellow Jews kill a Christian witness. Saul also witnessed this man talking to Jesus somewhere up in the sky. Saul became a persecutor of Christians, but later, he too would have a conversation with Jesus on the road to Damascus. As Saul, waited in darkness for three day for the truth to come to him, I wonder how these two events played out in his mind. Jesus would be victorious over the persecutor, and he would become the apostle Paul. Jesus will always give us victory when we yield to Him. Our Christian testimony may have a far reaching effect on someone, and help give them a victory too. Keep those lights shining.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
