            Wasted Witness?

The Bible says: “And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.” Acts 9:1-2 (KJV)

 A rich man was determined to give his mother a birthday present that would outshine all others. He read of a bird that had a vocabulary of 4000 words, could speak in numerous languages and sing 3 operatic arias. He immediately bought the bird for $50,000 and had it delivered to his mother. The next day he phoned to see if she had received the bird. “What did you think of the bird?” he asked. She replied, “It was delicious.”

Saul, (whose name would be changed to Paul) waisted so much time, energy and lives, preserving adherence to the Law. He had persecuted most in Jerusalem and now was on his way to Damascus. What a waste! Yet, the Lord can strike many a straight lick with a crocked stick. Paul would accept the Great Commission given him and the rest is history. How about you? We have all been given the Great Commission. Has it been wasted on us? Are we seeking to join the Lord where He is at work? Are we sharing? Are we caring? Are we praying for the Lord to use us mightily for His glory?

Let’s encourage one another to be rekindled and work for Jesus until He comes again! What if He came back today?
