God's Provision And Protection

A missionary was serving as a medic at a small field hospital in Africa.
Periodically he had to travel by bicycle through the jungle to a nearby 
city for supplies. It was a two day trip so he had to camp out overnight.
He had made this trip several times without incident. One day however, he
arrived at his destination and saw two men fighting. One was seriously

One Glass of Milk

One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay
his way through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and
he was hungry. He decided he would ask for a meal at the next

the door. 

Instead of a meal, he asked for a drink of water. She thought he
looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it
slowly, and then asked, "How much do I owe you?" "You ...

The Diver

This is such a simple, yet powerful story. Every seed you sow in witnessing the saving grace of Jesus does do its job. We read this in Isaiah 55:11, "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." 

I hope you enjoy the story.

In a class I teach for adults, I gave the assignment to "go
to someone you love, and tell them that you love them." At the
beginning of the next class, one of the students began by saying, "I
was angry with you last week when you gave us this assignment. I
didn't feel I had anyone to say those words to. But as I began driving
home my conscience started talking. Then I knew exactly who I
needed to say `I love you' to.

Five years ago, my father and I had a vicious di...
