We learned:
Even when you're afraid....Jesus loves you!
The Bible Story
for today is from
Acts 9:1-19
Ananias bravely
helps Saul.
During Bible times, many people did not
like Christians, and tried to silence them by putting them in jail. One of
these people was a powerful man named Saul. He had hurt many Christians, and
had gotten permission to punish any Christians he met, when suddenly,he had a
powerful vision from God. The Lord asked Saul why he was persecuting Him, and
Saul could not answer the question. The Lord told Saul to continue into the
city, and to stop hunting down Christians, but first he was blinded.
God wanted to prove his power to Saul
by restoring the man’s vision, but He needed someone on earth to work for Him.
God chose a man named Ananias to give Saul his sight back, but Ananias was
terrified of Saul! Everyone knew that Saul did not like Christians, so Ananias did
not want to go near him. But God told Ananias that he would be protected, and
that Saul was no longer a bad man. Even though Ananias was very scared to meet
Saul, he went to him anyway, because he trusted in God. Sure enough, Saul was
nice to Ananias, and Ananias was able to make Saul see again.
Saul was afraid that he would never see
again, and Ananias was afraid that Saul would hurt him, but the Lord helped
both of them, because even when you’re
afraid… Jesus loves you!
