Unstoppable! 'Blinded by the Light' — Acts 22:11

Any of us who has been in total darkness, then had someone shine a bright light into her or his eyes, knows the feeling. "Turn out that light! I can't see, and it hurts my eyes!" In Paul's situation, being blinded by the light was not just being stunned, blinded, and frozen physically. What Paul — who was called Saul at that time — heard and saw shook him to the core of his existence. He had been overwhelmingly wrong about Jesus. Now, in a few seconds that occurred as he traveled down the road to persecute Christians, Jesus rerouted Paul's life emotionally, spiritually, and physically. The decisive and passionate but misguided servant of God was frozen, not sure of what he needed to do. Thankfully, Paul did what he was told and allowed those with him to lead him to Damascus, where Ananias told him of the path God wanted him to follow. What am I willing to do when I realize that I have been wrong about something or someone?
