Converted


The WORD today (See http://usccb.org/bible/readings/012514.cfm) reminds me that Jesus calls each and every one of us to conversion, and eventually to evangelization.

Today we celebrate the feast day of St Paul’s conversion. This day started it all, from being one of the fiercest persecutors of Christ’s followers, he became one of, if not the greatest evangelizers.

We are reminded that like St Paul, God has a plan for us – no matter how lost we currently may be. God sees us not for what we are right now, or what we have done in the past, but for what we can become if we just allow him to use us, if we just submit to his will.

God calls each of us to conversion, no matter how little or big our change should be. And as we strive to live lives for God, we are also called to evangelization and bring others to Him.

Father God,
Thank you for today. thank you for another day to live. Thank you for St Paul, one of the greatest evangelizers, who worked tirelessly fir you. Thank you for making him an example that you never give up on us, and what great things we can accomplish if we just allow you to work through us. Lord, may I have a surrendered and willing heart like St Paul. Amen.

Blessed day!

In Christ,
