But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace, to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him. Galatians 1:15-16
I persecuted the church of God and wasted it. Galatians 1:13
Eventually, he was converted and began to preach “the faith
which once he destroyed”. Galatians 1:23
Paul was called to witness for Jesus, and he was the writer
of much of the New Testament as well as a mentor to others who wrote parts of
the Bible. This is a great mystery because he directed crusades against
Christians before he believed Jesus was the son of God.
In Galatians it says Paul was prepared by God throughout his
life as he persecuted the church to do what God planned for him even before his
birth.
If God can plan to reach a person while they are still in
their mother’s womb, we need to think about what God’s plan is for us. What
trials and tribulations have happened in your life to bring you to this point
of belief in Jesus Christ? What does God have planned for you? Ask him and you
might find out.
Prayer: Our Father who art in heaven, please bring us to understand
you knew us before we were born and have orchestrated happenings in our life to
prepare us to serve you. Please guide us to this service. Amen
