GOD OF LIFE


Good day dear friends.

Our thanks for your prayers for Arnie Burttschell as he continues to hold steady. Please continue to pray for Arnie, his wife, child and child-on-the-way.

Here is our study guide for today:

In Acts chapter 9 the story of Saul’s conversion says a lot about what God is able to do.


Remember who Saul was and who Paul became! Do you think God can do that in your life as well?

Here is a part of the Acts 9 passage: In Acts chapter 9 the story of Saul’s conversion says a lot about what God is able to do. Remember who Saul was and who Paul became! Do you think God can do that in your life as well?

Our theme this week has been on God's ability to have people come to know Him and His love. It is the duty and joy of every Christian to give witness to God and what God can do for one's life.

Imagine a life that's well-connected, successful, influential, and meaningful; then imagine having an encounter with the living God who challenges all that you've held sacred and special and reveals to you life, and life's greater meaning. Such was the case of Saul of Tarsus who has such an encounter in Acts 9.

God has incredible power to change those who ask. Sometimes, even in the case of Saul, even when you don't ask! God is a God of wonderful and awesome surprises! God will use us when we can serve Him by helping others come to a new understanding of God's saving love.

PRAYER: God of power and life, speak to my heart in ways that help me give witness to You. Help me share with others that which can bring true life to those who are lost. I ask this in Jesus' Name, amen.

Have a great and blessed day in the Lord!
