Paul Says Yes to Jesus’ Call
After Jesus changed Saul’s heart and made him Paul, Paul didn’t stay in one place. He was full of joy and ready to tell everyone about Jesus!
Paul packed his scrolls, grabbed his bag, and set off on a big adventure. He walked, sailed, and even rode animals—all to tell people the good news.
New Cities, New Friends
Paul visited many cities—like Antioch, Philippi, and Ephesus. In every place, he met new people. He told them,
“Jesus loves you. He died for you. And He rose again!”
Some people were happy. They listened and believed. But others didn’t want to hear. Some even got angry.
But Paul didn’t stop.
Trouble on the Road
Paul faced many hard times. Once, he got caught in a big storm at sea. Another time, he was thrown into jail with his friend Silas.
But even in jail, Paul didn’t cry or give up. He sang songs! He praised God!
One night, the jail shook—and their chains broke! Paul didn’t run. He stayed and showed kindness. Even the jail guard wanted to know Jesus after that.
Paul Finishes the Race
Paul kept traveling for many years. He started churches. He wrote letters. He helped people follow Jesus.
At the end of his life, Paul looked back and smiled. He had done what God asked. He said,
“I have fought the good fight. I have finished the race.”
What This Teaches Us
Paul didn’t keep the good news to himself. He shared it—even when it was hard.
Jesus wants us to do the same. We may not sail to far places. But we can tell others about God’s love—right where we are.
Would you go where God sends you, like Paul?
Moral of the Story
Paul didn’t keep Jesus’ love to himself.
He traveled far, faced hard times, and still kept sharing the good news with everyone.
