The Story of Soul

Posted by on Friday, March 16, 2012, In : Forgiven 

Daily Encouragement For March 16:

There once was a man named Soul who was walking in a garden. He was
whistling a real sweet tune for he was saved and had the joy of the Lord.

But he was a "baby Christian". As he was walking a beautiful and seductive
woman came out from behind a tree. Soul was very startled. He said, "Hello,
I'm Soul, what is your name?" She replied, "I am Temptation, I have 
what you want."

"What do I want?" replied Soul.

"You want to do all things which are of the flesh," said Tem...

I Don't Remember

Daily Encouragement For February 21:

A much loved minister of God once carried a secret burden of long past sin deep in his heart. He had committed the sin many years before, after he received Christ, but was now serving God in the ministry faithfully. No one knew what he had done, but they did know he had repented of what he did long ago. Even so, he had suffered years of remorse over the incident without any sense of God's forgiveness.

One day, he approached a woman that attended the churc...

Paid In Full

After living a "decent" life my time on earth came to an end. The first
thing I remember is sitting on a bench in the waiting room of what I thought
to be a courthouse. The doors opened and I was instructed to come in and
have a seat by the defense table. As I looked around I saw the "prosecutor,"
he was a villainous looking gent who snarled, as he stared at me. He
definitely was the most evil person I have ever seen. I sat down and looked
to my left and there sat my lawyer, a kind and gentle loo...

The Wall Of Cards

Posted by Christina Scovone on Wednesday, January 4, 2012, In : Forgiven 

In that place between wakefulness and dreams, I found myself in the room.
There were no distinguishing features except one wall covered with small
index cards. They were like the ones in libraries that list titles by
author or subject in alphabetical order. But these cards, which stretched
from the floor to the ceiling and left to right, had very different readings.

some of the people on them. And then, without being tol...
