Great day of rest, worship, rest, eating at Mimi's, and more rest.
We studied Pauls conversion experience on the road to Damascus. He encountered God in a very unique way. He was changed in a moment, having much more to learn, but was changed by the encounter. Too often today it seems people seek a religious experience but end up no different than before that experience. Left blind by the great light on the road, Paul spent the next three days in prayer & fasting. This was the beginning of his preparation for ministry...totally blind, totally dependent on God. Not a bad place to start. It seems way too often we consider ourselves wise and smart and not so much in need of God at all. It's well past time for us to get back on our knees, stop depending on what we see around us, and start seeking the One who can make us see clearly the things that really matter and the things which need to be changed.
I need to become as disciplined in my prayer & Bible study as I am in my running... |
