What you have seen and heard

“The God of our ancestors designated you to know his will, to see the Righteous One, and to hear the sound of his voice; for you will be his witness before all to what you have seen and heard.” (ACTS 22: 14-15)

This is the strength of the apostles—“witness before all to what you have seen and heard.” It had to happen also to St. Paul to be an apostle, designated by God “to know His will, to see the Righteous One, and to hear the sound of His voice.” The last, “the smallest”—like he used to call himself, but still—he was “chosen from the world” to be the Apostle of Jesus Christ.

“I chose you from the world, to go and bear fruit that will last, says the Lord.” (Gospel Acclamation)
