Seeing Jesus 

Part 1 – Blinding Light 

Acts 9.1-19

Heart of the series: “We want to see Jesus” (John 12). 

Today’s IF: we would leave everything and follow Him.

We would leave behind our past.

• Whether good or bad, we turn from it and to Him.
• When we follow Him, He gives us a new future.

We would leave behind our direction.

• We leave it behind because He is The King.
• When we follow Him, He gives us a new identity.

We would leave behind our comfort.

• We leave it behind because it doesn’t hold the same appeal anymore.
• When we follow Him, He gives us a new purpose.

You may have to take some time and figure it out.
