No one believed in people more than Jesus did. He saw something in Peter worth developing, in the adulterous woman worth forgiving, and in John worth harnessing.
\nHe saw something in the thief on the cross, and what he saw was worth saving. And in the life of a wild-eyed, bloodthirsty extremist, He saw the apostle of grace.\u00a0 He believed in Saul.
\nDon\u2019t give up on your Saul. When others write him off, give him another chance. Stay strong.\u00a0 Call him brother.\u00a0 Call her sister. It\u2019s too soon to throw in the towel. Talk to your Saul about Jesus, and pray.
\nGod is at work behind the scenes. And remember this:\u00a0 God never sends you where he hasn\u2019t already been.\u00a0 By the time you reach your Saul, who knows what you\u2019ll find.
