Everything continues in a state of rest unless it is compelled to change by forces impressed upon it. – Issac Newton, First Law of Motion
As he journeyed to Damascus, Saul of Tarsus didn’t know much about Isaac Newton’s first law of motion. He didn’t know that the One he hated so was going to become his Lord and Savior. Change was in the air for the man who was to become Paul the Apostle as one born out of due time.
Acts 22:6-8
“As I was on my way and drew near to Damascus, about noon a great light from heaven suddenly shone around me. And I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?’ And I answered, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ And he said to me, ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.’
All of us who have come to know God were on some path leading to destruction. All of us had the wrong idea about God. Then suddenly, under some set of circumstances, He made Himself known and change became a reality.
