Paul page 15 by ric gustafson
Paul opened his eyes. He was sore and his head hurt. He frowned. His friend Luke had just been taken away by Mauritius and sent to Circus Maximus. There he will die with other Christians.
Sitting next to a stone wall, Paul looked up and began to pray out loud. " I cannot do this alone". His tired eyes looked up to heaven. " Lord, help me finish the race".
In another part of town, Priscilla was crying on Aquila's shoulder. " They have taken Luke to be killed in the arena".
" Cassius and some men tried to rescue Luke and Paul". Aquila shook his head. " They failed".
Priscilla began to cry. " I cannot bear losing both Luke and Paul on the same day".
He hugged his wife tightly. " We will pray that does not happen".
