The ringleader filled with poisonous , hatred and bitterness was determined to wipe the Jesus followers off the face of the planet and he would do it singlehandedly if necessary. His two cronies insensitive to neither spilling innocent blood nor caring about the great religious cause were in it just for the money. Time seemed to wrap itself slowly around the three men as their journey’s destination finally approached.
Armed with death certificates from those in authority in Jerusalem, Saul would begin his murderous ravage through the local houses and marketplaces of Damascus snuffing out the lives of anyone who remotely wore the look of a Jesus believer!
Saul was nearing the city when the unexpected happened: A blinding ray of the Son’s glory burst through the clouds,knocking Saul effortlessly off his horse in one smooth motion.
“Saul, Saul why do you persecute me?” Saul whispering audibly, “Who are you Lord?” “I am Jesus Who you persecute and it must be tough kicking against the goads?” Groping aimlessly in the air Saul was blind as blind could be. “Head into the city and there I will tell you what do. Ananias one of mine will come to you at Simon’s house on the street called Straight. He will lay hands on you and your sight will be restored.”
Saul being blind for 3 days and touching no food was finally visited by Ananias. Ananias delicately placed his hands on Saul’s head saying ”Brother Saul the Lord Jesus appeared to me in a vision commanding me to come here to you. Receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” Instantly like light filling a dark room, Saul received his sight.
He received commands from Jesus telling him he would be a messenger of renown for the Lord and he would be intimately acquainted with the sufferings of his new found Savior.
Saul, now known as Paul went to Damascus to take life without cause was now filled with the radiant life of Jesus. His whole life radically rattled with one glorious beam from the Son.

Just a tip though--make sure to add in extra spaces when there is more than one speaker. When God's voice speaks and Saul answers, it all runs together in the same paragraph. Just hit an extra space/enter and bump it to the second paragraph so it reads easier.
Good job and thanks for sharing!
