Obedience

Then Ananias went. He entered the house, and at once laid his hands on Saul and said, ‘Brother Saul, I have been sent by the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on your way here so that you may recover your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.’ Immediately it was as though scales fell away from Saul’s eyes and he could see again.
Acts.9:17,18

Saul is blinded from his encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus to persecute Christians. Ananias is instructed by Jesus to go and minister to Saul. Reluctantly he goes resulting in Saul's miraculous healing and conversion. 

Imagine being the man who leads Saint Paul to Jesus. The greatest evangelist the Church has known first had to be evangelised. Ananias' obedience launched Paul's powerful missionary work.

Saying yes when you want to say no is difficult. Obedience is the only way forward, trusting that God has a wonderful outcome that I cannot see.

Lord make me obedient to your call in my life today.
Saint Philip Neri, please pray for me.
