Five Minutes to Eternity
Surely there was a village nearby.
"Stop!"
Without warning three armed men suddenly appeared in front of the two young Lifestory Tellers.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?"
"We are teachers sir," Asgat replied, humbly but clearly.
"We don't want any teachers. Go away, or we will kill you!"
"Wait," Asgat said. "If you have children we have a story for them."
"What kind of story?"
"A beautiful story about God."
All was quiet as the elders stared at the young men.
"You may come to our school and tell the children the story, but then you must leave immediately after."
Asgat and Alifaz smiled and gave a customary greeting.
Soon many households in this village had heard about Jesus for the first time and said yes to following Him. God did several miracles that day in that large village.
But how did the gospel get to this remote part of the Himalayas?
Jerri and I had spent years praying, fasting and struggling to share God's love with the people group to whom we had been sent. But we were only seeing a few come to faith each month, and they weren't winning others. Finally the Lord had mercy, and showed us how the gospel could multiply in our field just as it did in the book of Acts.
