This is a reportedly true story from a professor at Northern Michigan University.
There was an atheist couple that had a young child. The couple never told their daughter anything about the Lord.
One night when the little girl was five years old, the parents fought with each other. The dad shot the mom, right in front of the child. Then, the dad shot himself. The little girl watched it all.
She then was sent to a foster home. The foster mother was a Christian and took the child to church. On the first day of Sunday School, the foster mother told the teacher that the little girl had never heard of Jesus and to please have patience with the child.
The Sunday School teacher held up a picture of Jesus and said, "Does anyone know who this is?"
The little girl said, "I do, that's the man who was holding me the night my Mommy and Daddy died."
God Cares.
Listen to me; I have a word for you from God. God loves you. He has written across creation.. in the blood of His Son.. that you are worth more to Him than all the world. God loves you! He has a plan for your life.
You may be sitting here today and wondering how God can change your situation but listen He can. He can take the mistakes, the failures; the overwhelming circumstances and turned them around in the flash of an eye. How? Simply go to the Lord in prayer and give Him your life, the problem and watch Him begin to make a difference.
Jesus Really Does Love You.
It's not by accident you are reading this story. You have a divine appointment with God. The Lord wants you to know that He loves you and cares about you. It doesn't matter who you are or what you have done.. the Lord is here to put His arms around you and meet your need. He is just a simple prayer away. He says "Call on me.. and I will answer." |
