Midweek Meditation: Finding Encouragement

from Recovery Under the Cross Hosted by Tim Gray

It was a foregone conclusion that Saul (Paul) was not going to find any encouragement from his fellow Pharisees and Chief Priests regarding his conversion on the road to Damascus. They wanted to silence followers of Christ. Since Saul was now proclaiming Christ crucified, this moved the Jews in Saul's day who hated Christ to conspire to kill Saul. It was time for Saul to get out of Damascus and head to Jerusalem. In similar fashion, recovering addicts won't find the kind of encouragement they need to stay sober if they hang out with the same crowd from when they were using. The old crowd encourages recovering addicts to come back and catch up on "all the fun they missed." That's a disaster waiting to happen. Instead, the recovering addict will find a new group of friends who will encourage sobriety and encourage you to fill up on the Bread of Life (John 6) and drink the Water of Life (John 4) that is Jesus.
