I read Chapter 9 of the book of Acts, and it reminds me that, we can be on the way to accomplish one goal, when by divine interception, we accomplish another. This Bible story tells us, that God knows everything, and He never leaves us nor forsakes us. Whether we are in tune with Him or not, He continues to speak to us. When we train ourselves to listen to Him, we recognizes His presence immediately.

The New King James Version of the Bible, copyright in 1982 by Thomas Nelson Inc.Chapter 9 Verses 1 to 19, "Saul of Tarsus Converted," deals with Saul's conversion to Paul. I appreciate this lesson, because it demonstrates that a negative situation can be changed into a positive one. For Paul's sake, God stepped in. The people whom Paul was persecuting for righteousness' sake had enough. It was time for God to make His presence felt.

In like manner, we can be on our way to fulfill a mission, not necessarily a negative one, when we are guided to achieve another. This is certainly, evidence, that God's will is being done. Psalm 23 Verse 3 says, 'He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. God stays with us, until the scales fall from our eyes, and we get a revelation.

Let us go forward thinking positively, and doing positive deeds, for His name's sake. Amen. God bless you richly.
