Acts 25:23-27

Acts 25:23-27
English Standard Version (ESV)

 Isn't it amazing where Paul's journey has taken him?  He was on the road to Damascus to persecute Christians, and now he's in Rome with the chance to talk about Christ before kings!  He wouldn't have predicted this, couldn't have expected this, and yet God has used his life in wondrous ways to proclaim the truth of the Gospel.  Now, 2,000 years later, we read his words and marvel at the love of God.
  So don't give up.  Don't ever think God is finished with you.  Don't believe for a second that you know how your life will turn out.  We have no idea what God has in store for us, and his plans are greater than we can ask or imagine.  Our lives are but a blip on the timeline of history, but God can use them for amazing purposes if we entrust him with all that we are.  Trust in him, fix your eyes on Christ, and let him guide you into the eternal journey of faith.
