Today we read Acts 8. This is a very important chapter: we learn of a violent Pharisee named Saul who persecutes the Christians (much like leaders in some Muslim countries persecute Christians today!). And we learn that the Holy Spirit sends the apostle Philip to meet a man from Ethiopia who needs to hear about Jesus and be baptized. God still sends His Holy Spirit (today sometimes using the Internet!) to reach out to His people whom He has chosen before the beginning of time to become His followers. How amazing!
