Real Hope: Finding Hope Through the Life of PaulSmakprov

## Conversion Paul’s conversion was dramatic. It resulted in a profound and sincere change of heart. He not only stopped persecuting Christians, but he changed his whole life to reflect the teachings of Jesus and made a career out of sharing those teachings with as many people as he could. Paul found grace, love, and mercy so deep that it touched every part of his world – transforming him from the inside out. All Christians are called to conversion. We are called to a change of heart. We are called to recognise our own sins. We can be forgiven and become new again. This is not a one-time event. It is ongoing throughout our whole lives. We must work constantly to change our hearts to be more open to God, so that we can align ourselves to Him. Nothing can separate us from God’s love! 'Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.’ 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV) #### Written by HEIDI WYSMAN
