There was a wealthy man who, in his old age, was asked to recall the happiest experience of his life. He said, "It was when I was in a hospital in a strange town, seriously ill for three weeks with typhoid fever." When his listeners expressed surprise that this was the happiest situation of his life, he continued: "The hospital was understaffed and overcrowded with patients. It was a difficult time for everyone. But there was one nurse who never let it get her down, who treated each one of us patients as if we were royalty. Every time she came into my room, I felt a deep sense of peace. I have never felt anything like it since and I have never forgotten her. It was the happiest period of my life in spite of the physical suffering." This is what Jesus Christ is saying to us. Every time we go into a room we bring the peace of God. He has given us the power to be like that. Not only do we receive the gift from the Risen Christ we receive the power to share it. Quote this article on your site | Views: 445 | Print | E-mail
