The worker we had was really tough on me as a Christian. He would tease me and ask me impossible questions. He accepted the Lord about 6 months before he died. What a joy.
Isn't God wonderful

Ed knew he was facing death and when someone came to talk to him in the hospital, he remembered that I did not back down from my belief even in the face of his persecution.
I would set him straight when he stepped over the line, but I continued to care about him.

There are alot of people I think would starve if they had to kill their dinner first.

I used to be one of them. I never connected chickens to chicken meat.

We have mink.

If more Christians could follows Christ's example of grace in the same way, Christianity would be seen in a far better light than it is today. I am currently reading "The Grace Awakening" by Chuck Swindoll. It really shines a bright light on judgemental Christians.

I could not get that close to the other man living on the property we rented to farm on. He died a year and a half ago. He knew I was different, but I could never talk to him long enough.

Both Ed and Jimmy were hardened alcoholics. They lived on the property we rent for our farm.

Now there is the owner of the land who only goes to a church that preaches what he wants to hear. I have had some talks with him.

We had a news story where some environmentalist let a whole bunch of mink loose in protest in the west. The mink went directly to the lights of the road. It was a bloodbath. They sure do make beautiful clothing.

God saves who He will. We just strive to keep living Christ's example and leave the rest to him.
