Every disease a herb to cure it, and every person a mission

Aloe Vera

During our bible study fellowship, a lady shared how they went to pray for a sick man and after sharing the Word, asked him whether he was ready to accept salvation.  He said an enthusiastic “Yes”, and all around appeared amazed. Some people appear so hardhearted towards salvation that those close to them have seemingly despaired of ever getting through to them. But do not give up on anybody.  Not even when they rationalize the talk on salvation by saying “religion is the opium of the masses” or “ God has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect to use and not depend on superstitions”. For many there will come a time when they are ready to accept the higher calling. Maybe you are the cure; and your mission to them a major purpose of your life.
