A beggar, A story

Today as i went to the market,
i noticed a beggar sitting by the entrance
his whole body including the scalp of his head
was covered in what looked like peeling skin,
his eyes were filled with sadness and loneliness
occasionally holding up a little plastic bag towards
the people who walked in and out of the market.

I stood there thinking for a while,
I should tell him of Jesus, for only He had
the power to heal his skin ilness,
but i was afraid that he would reject Jesus
and become angry,
then remembered How Jesus had healed the Leapers
but i thought. I couldn't do what my Lord did for He is great
and who am i.

Finally as i walked out of the market,
i placed a little something in his plastic bag
but i couldn't say anything, but as i left
i heard the beggar say, God bless you.
I turned and looked into his eyes and
said:"Do you know Jesus?"
He replied" Yes I do"
I then said :"Please believe in Him"



Then the beggar said:"I do."


I was relieved..
God had already touched his heart,
and God put him there ,
so that we could encourage each other
as brothers in Christ.

God bless him and heal him, may the spirit be with him always, in Jesus' name
Amen.
