Not Long Ago We Took A Christmas Trip To My Home ...
Contributed by Ken Dillingham on Dec 25, 2003 (message contributor)
Not long ago we took a Christmas trip to my home in Illinois. We witnessed a wreck outside Marshall, TX. When I got to the scene, the man was unconscious and unresponsive. What do you do? All I knew to do while all the people were gathering around this dying man was to pray. And as I prayed, a single tear trickled down this man’s cheek. Unable to signal me verbally, unable to tell me who he was or if he had a wife and children, unable to tell me where he was going, unable to tell me if he was a believer ... he signalled a message.
My Message: Signals Of The Soul.
That singular tear was a signal … a message from within the shell of a human broken body. Unresponsive yet signaling.
Unconscious yet signaling. (The plea from within!)
