Monday's Max Lucado in my inbox:
God's Strategy for Human Hurt
"Bzuneh
Tulema lives in Ethiopia. Just a few years ago he and his wife were so
consumed with alcohol that they farmed out their kids to neighbors and
resigned themselves to a drunken demise. But then someone saw them. A member
of an area church shared Jesus with them. Then Meskerem Trango, a
World Vision worker, arranged a loan through the World Vision
microfinance department. Within a year Bzuneh had repaid the loan, built
his house, and reclaimed his kids.
"Could this be God’s strategy for human hurt? Kind eyes meet
desperate ones, strong hands help weak ones, then the miracle of God. We
do our small part, he does the big part, and life begins again."
