A Man Was Watching A Little Tv On Sunday Instead ...

A man was watching a little TV on Sunday instead of going to church, He was watch a Church service in Atlanta honoring one of its senior pastors who had been retired many years......

The retired minister was 92 at that time and he wondered why the Church even bothered to ask the old gentleman to preach at that age. After a warm welcome, introduction of this speaker, and as the applause quieted down he rose from his high back chair and walked slowly, with great effort and a sliding gate to the podium. Without a note or written paper of any kind, he placed both hands on the pulpit to steady himself and then quietly and slowly he began to speak......

"When I was asked to come here today and talk to you, your pastor asked me to tell you what was the greatest lesson ever learned in my 50 odd years of preaching. I thought about it for a few days and boiled it down to just one thing that made the most difference in my life and sustained me through all my trials. The one thing that I could always rely on when tears and heart break and pain and fear and sorrow paralyzed me...... the only thing that would comfort was this verse.....

"Jesus loves me this I know. For the Bible tells me so. Little ones to him belong, We are weak but he is strong..... Yes, Jesus loves me... The Bible tells me so."

When he finished, the church was quiet. You actually could hear his footsteps as he shuffled back to his chair. The man said ¡§I don’t believe I will ever forget it.¡¨

A pastor once stated, "I always noticed that its was the adults who chose the children’s hymn ’Jesus Loves Me’ (for the children of course) during a hymn sing, and it was the adults who sang the loudest because He could see they knew it the best."

The Lost of this world do not know this song like you and I do. But if we could pray them into the kingdom it would change their life just as it changed our lives.
