Sneaking Out

Saul lowered in a basketSo last week we left Saul eating and not leaving anything for me.

He’s going to get fat.

He isn’t?

Oh. He goes on lots of walks?

Well, how come he doesn’t take me on a walk?

Okay, I’m listening.

***

Saul spent several days with the disciples in Damascus. At once he began to preach in the synagogues that Jesus is the Son of God.

***

Saul sure did a turn around after Jesus zapped him with that light, didn’t he?

I am listening.

***

All those who heard him were astonished and asked, “Isn’t he the man who raised havoc in Jerusalem among those who call on his name? And hasn’t he come here to take them as prisoners to the chief priests?” Yet Saul grew more and more powerful and baffled the Jews living in Damascus by proving that Jesus is the Christ.

***

Maybe Saul should come here. There’s lots of people here who need proof that Jesus is the Christ.

***

After many days had gone by, the Jews conspired to kill him,…

***

Oh no! I’d better warn him.

Oh wait. Saul isn’t leaving any food for me.

I’ll make him a deal.

I’ll warn him if he leaves me some food.

I am listening.

***

…but Saul learned of their plan.

***

And he didn’t give me any food for telling him.

***

Day and night the Jews kept close watch on the city gates in order to kill Saul. But his followers took him by night and lowered him in a basket through an opening in the wall.

***

Did you say that Saul was a basket case?

In that case he probably forgot where he put all his food.
