| "But the Lord said to him, 'Go, for he is a chosen vessel of Mine to bear My name before Gentiles, kings, and the children of Israel. For I will show him how many things he must suffer for My name's sake.' " - Acts 9:15-16
"Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong." - 1 Corinthians 12:10
Apostle Paul was a persecutor of the church of Christ, but with his conversion, he changed and became a great vessel used mightily of God. Apostle Paul was chosen to suffer for Christ and to further the Gospel to the Gentiles. Today, we have the blessing of reading the epistles of apostle Paul, written by his own hand. From persecutor to the greatest follower of Jesus Christ. He led an extraordinary life of faith and mightily used by God. Will we have a testimony similar to the great apostle Paul? Who said, "For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain".
Praise the Lord!
