Of all the stories in the Bible, from the parting of the Red Sea to the raising of Lazaras from the dead, the conversion of Paul may be the most miraculous. With Paul, God changed a human heart.

Lord, work in the hearts of people. Turn our hearts of stone into hearts of flesh. And, Lord, if there is any hard-heartedness in my heart, replace it with a heart of flesh and show us how to help others walk in your light. AMEN!

When we cleave to Him we are embracing the Tree of Life, getting back what was lost! We are the Bride, the overcomers who remember their first love, the living flames of love who
