Above the Brightness of the Sun...

Acts 26:12-14King James Version (KJV)

12 Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,

13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.

14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

Dear Friends,

There is a place above the brightness of the sun.  It this place, you might find "Your Damascus Road."  Like Saul, in the life of every born again believer there is a moment of acceptance, a place on life's journey, where the Holy Spirit knocks on the door of our hearts. We make a choice to accept the invitation to invite the Lord into our lives as Savior and King.  This is the beginning of the unclouded day. This is the start of our pathway home.  Heaven is the destination. It all starts above the brightness of the son.  God, with outstretched hand bids us to accept the gift He has provided. His Son Jesus Christ.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
   - St. John 3:16

God bless you!

in Christ,

Unclouded Day - J.K. Atwood (Public Domain)

1. Oh, they tell me of a home far beyond the skies,
   Oh, they tell me of a home far away;
   Oh, they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise,
   Oh, they tell me of an unclouded day.
   • Refrain:
     Oh, the land of cloudless day,
     Oh, the land of an unclouded sky,
     Oh, they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise,
     Oh, they tell me of an unclouded day.
2. Oh, they tell me of a home where my friends have gone,
   Oh, they tell me of that land far away,
   Where the tree of life in eternal bloom
   Sheds its fragrance through the unclouded day.
3. Oh, they tell me of a King in His beauty there,
   And they tell me that mine eyes shall behold
   Where He sits on the throne that is whiter than snow,
   In the city that is made of gold.
4. Oh, they tell me that He smiles on His children there,
   And His smile drives their sorrows all away;
   And they tell me that no tears ever come again
   In that lovely land of unclouded day.
