Saul had preached boldly about Jesus in Damascus, and now men watched the gates day and night, waiting to kill him. Knowing the danger, the disciples helped Saul escape. That night, they lowered him in a basket through a window in the wall, helping preserve the life of a man who would carry the gospel to many others. Their hands had a part in the work his voice would continue. We can share in that work through the practical help we give those who proclaim Christ. Sometimes serving God means holding the rope.
“Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in a basket.” —Acts 9:25
