Galatians 1:23
“They only heard the report: 'The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.'”
Understanding this passage
Paul's story shows God can convert even a persecutor. The faith people try to destroy can end up being preached by them.
Why this verse helps
Persecution is not the last word over a person's life. God can turn an enemy of the faith into a witness.
A prayer for you
Lord, You changed Paul. Work even in those who oppose Your people, and keep me faithful. Amen.
