Whatever Happens To Us!
"But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions,
do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry."
2 Timothy 4: 5
Jae Kang Im ducked into a barber shop in South Korea. During
the haircut, his stylist, Sun-ah, started talking about her troubles
in life, especially pain of growing up in an alcoholic and abusive
home. Im wanted to share the Gospel with her, but wasn’t sure
how to go about it.
Suddenly he felt a sharp pain to his ear. The stylist had sliced
into it and the blood flowed in streams. The staff wanted to
call paramedics, but Im reassured them he’d be fine.
He told the stylist the pain with his ear was nothing
compared to what she had experienced in her life,
and she began to weep.
Im left and tended to his ear, but that evening he returned
just before the shop closed. He found Sun-ah and shared
his testimony. He told her about Jesus, and the woman
was wonderfully saved. “I thank God for using my ear
to save one soul,” he said.
Wherever we live and whatever happens to us,
our goal is the same, to bring others to the
saving knowledge of Christ.
"There is no joy in the world like
the joy of bringing one soul to Christ."
William Barclay
