A new visitor

[paulnoel]

The non-Christian thought it was the most friendly place he had ever been, for the little girl sitting beside him greeted him with, "Hello I haven't seen you before, I do hope you like it hear?" When the first item of praise was announced she handed him a hymn book and for the scripture lesson her own Bible.
Then when the text was given out she squeezed a peppermint into his hand.

Is it any suprise then that the visitor returned again and again, and then one day gave his life to Jesus.​

We become not so like visitors
Once we accept Christ!
In our lives!

A good lesson from a little girl in church

Christ knew it well, the effectiveness of the little tykes. Out of the mouths of babes and all that jazz.

Aren't Children amazing? Surprisingly this post makes me want to weep. Children as so innocent and lack any sort of prejudice or judgement.

Wow. If only we werent all like that.

God Bless, metal.

We need to imitate that little girl's example for sure.

This is so true. A little true story. One day some Christian people from India (about 6 or 7) were visitng our church (in fact it was Holy Friday). So many people were saying, "O look at those Hindus, what are they doing in 'our' church" (because the visitors were wearing their beautiful traditional clothing). Having been outcast before in our lives, my friend and I decided to greet the visitors after church. We went to them and had a most wonderful time talking to these beautiful Indian Christians, who were deeply reverently, yet passionately in love with Yeshuah. We showed them about and invited them to come and join us for the next days and for Resurrection Sunday. Fortunately many others dropped their suspicions and began to greet them as well. We invited them to eat with us. I was so happy we greeted them. To our wonderful surprise they came back for nearly a week completely, until it was time to return to India. They promised to visit us each time they come. I thank God for the blessing they were, and that He helped my friend and I to show His friendship.

In a way we need to look
At children and behave like them
Sometimes if you know what I mean!

Absolutely!

Christ instructed us to become like Children because Children shall inherit the Kingdom of God.

Matthew 18:3
And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

God Bless, metal.
