Today’s thoughts by Deborah Ard.
This week I am sharing thoughts about Paul from the Bible. Please take a moment to read today’s featured scripture. While it is not our usual type of featured scripture, it contains the first time we learn of Saul, later called Paul. This scripture recounts the story of the disciple Stephen being stoned to death. Acts 8:1 NIV states — And Saul approved of their killing him.
I know you are thinking, What a strange way to begin today’s thoughts! However, I am laying the groundwork for what will become one of the greatest stories of redemption. I want you to see, feel, understand, how against Christianity Saul was, so you can fully understand how far God will go for you and me. More than anything, God wants a relationship with each of us. God will go to elaborate lengths to show us His love. No matter how far away from God we are, He is always ready to receive us with open arms. We just have to take the first step and walk on water.
If you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your savior, I encourage you to visit our Steps To Peace page to learn how you can trust God with your life. If you would like more information or support, please email us at waterwalkers29@gmail.com.
Let’s pray. Thank you God for redeeming me and helping me to walk on water as a believer of Christ. May all that I say and do reflect Your love. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
