A daily devotional through the Bible speaking with God as Adam and Eve may have in the garden east of Eden. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com

summary

Paul found in Christ the hope he tried to find in his religion without success. He felt the forgiveness that lifted the burden of guilt sin placed upon his life and knew the stories he heard from Christ's followers about God's grace and mercy were true. Paul understood the transforming power of His Spirit and gave himself fully to Christ. 

Paul died to himself. He gave up everything for Christ. Paul recognized the mission He wanted him to complete and eagerly accepted it. He saw the eternal ramifications of his decision and the temporary nature of all else around him. Paul could say without any doubt that everything he gained to that point in his life truly appeared as garbage compared to knowing Christ. 

Why? Because Jesus is the Eternal God…and that’s enough.
