Reading for today: 2 Samuel 12:24-31 and 1 Timothy 2:7
“And for this I was appointed a herald and an apostle – I am telling the truth,
I am not lying – and a teacher of the true faith to the Gentiles.” 1 Timothy 2:7
Paul was given his authority from Jesus directly on the road to Damascus. He was given a special appointment to be the apostle to the Gentiles. This was an awesome responsibility for Paul, being a Jew. We have this same responsibility as Christians to seize any opportunity that the Lord places before us. Let us pray that we use our authority wisely!
