> "The first thing I'm gonna do when
> I get to heaven is ask, 'Why me, Lord? Why'd you choose a farm boy from 
> North Carolina to preach to so many people?" Billy Graham's life proves 
> that in God's eyes the greatest ability is-availability. Paul writes: "The 
> kindness of God has been poured out upon us...and now he is sending 
> us...to tell...people everywhere the great things. God has done...so that 
> they, too, will believe." ( Ro 1:5 TLB ). And God has also called you "to 
> tell...sot that they, too, will believe." Don't worry about closing the 
> deal; they'll come when God draws them. Just tell them the story-and let
