POINT OF GRACE



My ladies Bible study, in Lobeco, got together,today, and we watched the DVD of :"The End Of The Spear". It was hard for me to watch the 5 missionaries during the 1950's, as they were slain, while they they tried to reach out to the Wanabi Indian tribe.
What touched me the most,though, was how glad I was, that this was not the end of the story.......
To think that the widows of Nate Saint, Jim Elliott and the others, returned to minister to these very same people who took the lives of their husbands! ........Wow! Now, that's letting Christ speak through you in a mighty big way!
.......Reminds me of another event at Calvary, where a man,
a long, long, time ago was trying to reach the world, with God's word, when those same people nailed Him to a cross.
Only, after He died, and rose from this death, and into His Father's Kingdom, did His disciples realize just whom they had in their midst.
Today, we have His word, and the Holy Spirit to convict us. I surely hope it doesn't take us that long to come to our senses!
Aren't we glad He desires us to accept Him, as Lord and Savior?
"The End Of The Spear" was their "Point Of Grace"........
"The Man On The Cross", is our "Doorway To Grace"......
