"Today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts."
(Hebrews 4:7)
Many people go out of their way to avoid Christians and the opportunity to have a relationship with Jesus Christ. All the while, their hearts grow harder, and they risk becoming calloused to the point of no return. We don't know when that point will come in their lives. Maybe you even know someone who seems as though they have reached it.
We can take heart when we look at the conversion of Saul of Tarsus. It was so radical and unexpected that when it happened, first-century Christians thought he was attempting to infiltrate their ranks and persecute the church even further. They didn't believe that God could save someone as wicked and hostile toward the church as Saul. But we know that Saul became Paul the Apostle. If you know someone who seems so far gone and permanently hardened toward the gospel, keep praying. You never know. That person just might be the next Paul.
Dear Lord....I know so many people that have chosen not to hear about you
and the wonderful things you offer. God, I don't want to think about them going to hell. Please use me if you wish to reach the unreachable. Thank
you....in Jesus' name. Amen
