Jesus get's Saul's attention
It's a dramatic moment. Saul is off to arrest and/or kill the Christians when he is blinded by a light and he hears Jesus ask "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?" It's interesting that Jesus doesn't ask "Why do you persecute the Christians?" He asks "why do you persecute me?"
Oh Lord, thank You so much for taking us on. I think of the persecuted church just now and I realize that it's You they are persecuting...someone who did no harm. Lord Jesus, will you intervene in many amazing ways as You protect Your people during this time of persecution, such that the church grows even deeper and stronger. Create many Saul's who turn their lives over to You because of the testimony of the persecuted church and allow those people to warn us in North America. Give them an ear to the nominal Christians so we too can awaken to Your will and purpose in our lives. Give dreams of You to those who aren't following You so that they will choose You. Amen
