Who will your child of today become?

Today’s child is tomorrow’s Hitler. Today’s son is tomorrow’s Dennis Nilsen. Boris Johnson. Ravi Zacharias. Today’s daughter is tomorrow’s Gladys Aylward, or Florence Nightingale, or praying Hannah. Or the Myra Hindley of tomorrow.

Or think about this: Saddam Hussein was yesterday’s child; Stalin, yesterday’s baby; and Harold Shipman, yesterday’s child – an aspiring doctor, then a serial murderer.

And today’s son is tomorrow’s Saul, the angry persecutor of Christians. Such was the perceived threat of the believers to Saul and all he stood for, that he went on the warpath tormenting Christians, determined to chase them down wherever he could find them. But for God’s intervention.
