HIS HEART WAS SET AFLAME
Folder:
THE COWBOY AND THE PARSON
“There's just one thing,”
he said, when he told the parson
of the gift he'd received,
“I didn't have the heart to tell her
that I do not know how to read.”
“If you're interested in learning,”
responded the humble parson,
“I think I can teach you to read.”
Thus they began to daily meet
and our once illiterate friend
became a proficient reader
in just less than a year.
But the parson did not
just teach him to read, he was also
descipling him in the faith.
The former cowboy was soon became
known for his sincere faith.
Opportunities to help other , he actively sought.
To help someone, there were no lengths he would not go.
His love for God and his fellow man as well as his faith
were continually growing as he read daily
from that well worn Bible he received as a gift.
For God, his heart was set aflame
And Glorifying God was his sole aim.
