“But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty”
1 Corinthians 1:27The sociologist Anthony Campolo is pointing an event from a Christian youth camp.
A young with spastic paralisia has been the object of the irony and bad humour of other teens who were imitating him in a purposive way and to have fun. In one evning, the ill boy has been asked to present the devotional. All thought that was a neww good opportunity to have fun. The boy stand up and with his hesitating and unclear speaking, making a huge effort, managed to say: „Jesus loves me and I love Him too!” Many teens have been so touched as they started crying. After many years, Campolo is still meeting people who accepted Christ just because of that short testimony the young made.
You may feel unprepared but God may want to use you for the salvation of a precious soul. Be prepared to say some simple but warm words about His love to the people we will be meeting today!
