Acts 9:7-10 - They led him by the hand

9:7-9

The people around Saul did not see anyone, but heard the sound. Saul was on the ground, and when he got up he was unable to see. So the men travelling with Saul led him into the city of Damascus. Saul thought he was in control of his life, but that was never actually the case, and was now obvious to him. He was blind for three days and didn’t eat or drink anything. We are not told whether this was fasting or just not eating.


9:10

God sees far beyond what we see. We need to recognise the limits of our vision, for we so often assume that what we see and know is all that there is to see and know. God had already lined up a disciple in Damascus, called Ananias. The Lord (Jesus) called out to him and he responded that he was listening.
