All right April praise the Lord. -- Christ is the reason for the season. If there was not Christ. There would be no Christ-mas. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!! Karen Carter Class of '74 -------------- Original message -------------- From: April Stahl <[log in to unmask]> > Hi all, > > God is so good. Tonight Don Drennan came to my house promoting the Columbus > Dispatch. At first I was going to say "No, I don't want what you're selling." > That still small voice said, "Wait! Listen!" I listened. I said, "I think > that's good, but my husband will probably say no. Please let me go and ask > him." Had he said "No," I would have left it alone. However, he said "Yes" not > knowing of my encounter with the Holy Spirit of God. > > "Come in," I said. "You needn't stand out there to doo the paper work." Don > began telling me his story of a life of alcoholism and of traveling across the > state to sell newspapers. While in Wooster, Ohio, and while selling his wares, > Mr. Drennan had a heart attack. He barely made it to his car and noticed > Wooster General Hospital was to the left. He turned the car in. They rushed > him to a side room. The doctor said, "You have three options: 1. I can life > flight you to Cleveland and you will probably die en route. 2. You can say > your pryaers now because you'll die anyway. 3. Let me take care of you because > I'm the best at what I do."

The doctor fixed your broken heart and Jesus wants to heal > your broken heart and He wants you!" Don said, "You know, you've said something > I've not heard before." I said, "I would like you to read John Chapter 3 when > you rest tonight. If you have a Bible, please read it. I'm reading your > newspaper, now you can read mine." > > I gave Don my e-mail address, and it's the best unnecessary $20 I ever spent. > Please pray for Don Drennan. Actually, the papers I get will have coupons in > them that our kids can use, too, so a little bit of "savings" wcould be in the > works for all of us.
