About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"PUT YOUR TRUST IN JESUS" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
HAVE YOU EVER HEARD SOMEONE SAY "THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE"? I AM SURE YOU HAVE, AS I HAVE, AND WITH OUR CARNAL MINDS, SOME THINGS REALLY DO LOOK IMPOSSIBLE. I TOLD THIS STORY A LONG TIME AGO AND HAVE BEEN ASK TO TELL IT AGAIN. IT IS A TRUE STORY OF AN AMAZING GODLY MAN, MY FATHER-IN-LAW, WHO HAS GONE TO BE WITH THE LORD. ONE TIME I SAW HIM TRY TO PUT TOGETHER A STEERING COLUMN ON AN OLD FORD FALCON. I LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THAT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THAT SHAFT TO FIT. TO ME, IT LOOKED TOO LONG AND TOO BIG AROUND AND I KNEW IT WAS PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR IT TO FIT. I WILL GET BACK TO THIS STORY AFTER I TELL YOU SOMETHING ABOUT MY FATHER-IN-LAW. .
HE HAD ABOUT THE CLOSEST RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS AS ANY MAN I HAD EVER MET. HE ONCE WAS THE CHIEF ENGINEER ON THE MISSIONARY SHIP "THE MORNING STAR", THAT TRAVELED BETWEEN TAMPA AND BELIZE, TAKING FOOD, CLOTHING, MEDICAL SUPPLIES AND, MOST OF ALL, JESUS TO THE PEOPLE THERE. HE ONCE TOLD ME A STORY THAT ON ONE OF HIS TRIPS, THE ENGINE HAD STOPPED RUNNING AND HE HAD TO REPLACE A PART TO REPAIR IT. WITH NO ENGINE, THERE WAS NO ELECTRICITY AND, OF COURSE, NO LIGHTS OR AIR CONDITIONING ON THE SHIP SO ALL THE PEOPLE LEFT AND STAYED IN LOCAL HOUSING. BEING BY HIMSELF, AND WITH NO LIGHTS, HE PLACED A MIRROR ON THE DECK AND ONE IN THE ENGINE ROOM TO SHINE LIGHT FROM THE SUN. HE SAID THAT HE WORKED ON THE ENGINE FOR FOUR OR FIVE HOURS AND, ALTHOUGH THE SUN MOVED ACROSS THE SKY, THE LIGHT NEVER FADED FROM THAT ENGINE ROOM. HE REPAIRED THE ENGINE AND THEY GOT ON THE WAY THE NEXT MORNING. I BELIEVE IT WAS JUST THE LIGHT OF JESUS IN THAT ENGINE ROOM BECAUSE JESUS TELLS US IN JOHN 8:12 "I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life ".
NOW FOR THE FORD FALCON. MY FATHER-IN-LAW SENT ME TO THE AUTO PARTS STORE FOR SOMETHING AND WHEN I GOT BACK, THE STEERING COLUMN WAS IN AND HE WAS FINISHING UP. I ASK HIM WHAT HAPPENED AND HE SAID HE FINALLY ASK JESUS TO SHOW HIM WHAT TO DO. HE SAID THAT THIS SHOULD BE A LESSON FOR ME TO REMEMBER. ALWAYS GO TO JESUS FIRST WITH YOUR PROBLEMS. HE ALWAYS KNOWS THE ANSWER. JESUS EVEN TELLS US THIS IN MATTHEW 19:26 WHERE HE SAYS "With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible." I HAVE NEVER FORGOTTEN THIS AND IT HAS BEEN A BLESSING FOR ME ALL MY LIFE.
IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING WHAT YOU BELIEVE TO BE AN IMPOSSIBLE SITUATION, THINK AGAIN. JUST LET THE LORD DO WHAT HE DOES BEST AND TRUST HIM. YOU WON'T REGRET IT.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
