majestic, and full of splendor: breathtaking! Here is what I saw of
him in Galatians 1:1,
"Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ
and God the Father, who raised him from the dead."
Paul was sent to us by our loving Savior and God our Father. Paul
wrote thirteen of our New Testament books and laid out clearly the
gospel message of salvation by faith in Jesus Christ. Paul provided us
an example of what hard work in the gospel looks like, what
determination and diligence looks like in his service to the Lord.
Paul was endowed with the gifts and tools given an apostle and was
faithful in executing his responsibilities. How wonderful the Lord
provided such a man as Paul and gifted him in such a way that we are
provided with so much!
Peter's perspective on God's gifts is that they are an expression of
his grace, 1 Peter 4:10. Certainly Paul and the brothers with him when
he wrote the book of Galatians were a wonderful expression of God's
grace. Surely God has provided us with so much!
Anything of the Lord capture your heart from Scripture today? Share
your thoughts of worship with us from your Bible reading today. We'd
love to hear from you!
