As I was on the road, I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, blazing around me and my companions. We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice saying to me in Aramaic, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’ Then I asked, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,’ the Lord replied.
–Acts 26:13-15 (NIV)–

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
whose mind is stayed on thee:
because he trusteth in thee.
–Isaiah 26:3 (KJV)–

Did not our heart burn within us,
while he talked with us by the way,
and while he opened to us the Scriptures?
–Luke 24:32 (KJV)–

May the God of hope
fill you with all joy and peace in believing,
so that by the power of the Holy Spirit
you may abound in hope.
–Romans 15:13 (ESV)–

As the mountains are round about Jerusalem,
so the Lord is round about his people.
–Psalm 125:2 (KJV)–

The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
–John 3:8 (KJV)–

When the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of Truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of Me.
–John 15:26 (KJV)–
