The Challenge Of God's Call-10 Series

Illustration:

Gwen was a Christian lady who was destitute, having no husband or family/ She openly, verbally prayed to the Lord God every day to help supply her with groceries/Her atheist neighbor knew of her plight but despised the fact that she asked of God/In order to prove to her that God didn’t exist, Betty underhandedly would place a bag of groceries at Gwen’s door every week for several weeks/Gwen never knew how the groceries got there/One day Betty heard Gwen praying so she enters Gwen’s apt. & tells her that all along it had been her atheist neighbor Betty who had been bringing the groceries!/Gwen was flabbergasted!/She immediately cries out to the Lord God in thanks for His faithfulness to meet her need—& adding “Thank you especially using an atheist to do it!”/Our PLUNDER

The world gladly complies(surrenders) with Christian compassions—Feeding the starving, Helping the helpless, Caring for the hurting, Being a voice for the voiceless, etc./We in turn, gladly accept & walk away with those ‘blessings’ knowing that we will meet them in Christ & thru them give witness to Him!/Our PLUNDER
