Generally, when we see someone change and convert to Jesus, there is some sort of lead up. An inner turmoil where the person is in constant battle with themselves, the battle they face in the hall.
Saul was different. He was actually on the road with papers from the high priest saying that he had the right to capture all men and women of Jesus’s following. He had no inner fight, his demons had won his convictions long ago, but they weren’t stronger than the living God, and He had a purpose for Saul.
Saul was a man who had let his dark side win. He was a killer. He was evil in many ways. But God.
Acts 9:1-9

I am a young woman who grew up in British Columbia. In BC was all I ever wanted; I had my poodle (Max) and all my friends, Saturdays at the Vancouver Aquarium and Sunday afternoons at one of my favorite beaches it was paradise. But God had a different plan for my life and my dad's job landed us in Alberta and now where I remain, in small town Souris Manitoba. The transitions from paradise to prairie were difficult and I will admit that now 10 years later I still refer to home as Abbotsford BC. Through this crazy pathway trek across Canada I have had one true constant, God; and though none of it was easy, everything that has happened in my life has formed in me a true lasting friendship with the one I call Immanuel. Because no matter how far from home we are God is with us, and thanks to God I have found an almost completely over looked beauty in Manitoba. If you open your eyes you will see that God has planted wondrous things everywhere you go.
