Who are You, Lord? . . . Lord, what do You want me to do? — Acts 9:5-6

 We enter a relationship with the Son of God that transforms our lives when we accept Jesus as our Savior from sin. We cannot escape the truth that, as God, He has a right to be Lord of every aspect of our life, even though we may not have been aware of all the far-reaching ramifications at the time of our commitment to Him. We must eventually reach the place where we may say, in Thomas' words, "My Lord and my God!" (John 20:28).

Saul's conversion led him to accept Jesus as his Lord and Savior. Saul was on the Damascus roadway when he heard Jesus' voice, and he immediately questioned the Lord, "Who are You, Lord?" When Jesus replied, "I am Jesus," Paul knew right once that the person he had been persecuting was in fact the Savior. He threw himself at His mercy at that very time. He quavered in the presence of God and posed a follow-up, vital query: "Lord, what do You want me to do?" Oswald Chambers quotes him as saying that he was "giving up his right to himself."

Believer, you have put your faith in Jesus to save you. The question of who He is is now resolved. However, have you pondered the second, equally important query, "Lord, what do You want me to do?" Tell Him, "Lord, I'll do whatever You ask!" today.

Christ has the right to own us because He bought us. Lord, take my life and dedicate it to Thee. Take my hands and cause them to move at The urge of Thy love.
