![]() You shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. —Acts 1:8 Years ago, I was hospitalized following a life-threatening, 38-foot fall from a bridge. While I was there, the wife of the man in the next bed stopped to speak to me. “My husband just told me what happened to you,” she said. “We believe God spared your life because He wants to use you. We’ve been praying for you.” I was stunned. I had grown up going to church, but I had never imagined that God would want to be involved in my life. Her words pointed me to a Savior I had heard of but did not know—and marked the beginning of my coming to Christ. I cherish the memory of those words from a gentle witness who cared enough to say something to a stranger about the God whose love is real. Her words conveyed care and concern, and offered purpose and promise. Jesus challenged His disciples—and us—to tell others about the love of God: “You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth” (Acts 1:8). Through the Holy Spirit our words and witness can have the power to make an eternal difference in the lives of others. I love to tell the story of unseen things above, Of Jesus and His glory, of Jesus and His love, I love to tell the story, because I know ’tis true; It satisfies my longings as nothing else can do. —Hankey A caring word can accomplish more than we could ever imagine.

As they say, "It isn't so much what you say, but how you say it." Sometimes you have to have tough love, that doesn't mean acting out like I did in my dis-ease, but saying things without cursing, yelling, and pulling a banshee!
