One day, the Son of God felt particularly creative. He decided that He would undertake a project that would stretch His miraculous powers to their limits.
He had already created an entire universe out of a formless liquefied mass – too easy! He decided that to truly push Himself He would take the least likely sinner He could find and make the miserable wretch useful.
The Lord Jesus Christ, inventor of the duck-billed platypus, the giraffe and penguins, has a fine sense of humor. So He looked throughout the world and found a half-deaf, crippled ex-prize fighter with the social skills of a Neanderthal and the compassionate heart of a python. “This is going to be fun!” He thought to Himself, and He began working in 1981.
Turning this loser into a tzaddik was such an undertaking that He called upon the Holy Spirit to help Him. The Spirit convicted the man of both his enormous burden of sin and his complete inability to do anything about it. Then the Lord gave the man a Bible that told of the Savior’s loving sacrifice on Mount Calvary. The sinner yielded his will to Elohim, became a saved sinner, and went to Bible school in the hopes that someone would help him appear a little less confused than he actually was.
Now that broke-down, misanthropic loner is the pastor of a thriving church, married to a woman far better than he deserves, parenting five children too good-looking to be biologically related to him and writing devotionals that amazingly are read by thousands every month!
Though the project is still underway, some seem to think that a little progress has been made by the Master, but you can read and judge for yourself.
Any spiritual wisdom you may find in any of these pages can be directly attributed to the Giver of Good Gifts. Anything stupid, wicked and ignorant is solely the work of this transforming sinner.
