6/5/17 Albania lessons
June 6, 2017
Albanian widows teach me more than I teach them. I shared widow stories from the Bible with a room full of women whose lives are much different from mine. I told them the story of Mary, the widowed mother of Jesus. Her life touched theirs as we felt with her as she looked into the eyes of her dying son. Those eyes that held her gaze as he nursed as a babe.
There were no dry eyes in the room. Mary’s grief transcended time and culture. How true of Scripture. Her story communicates God’s great love for each of us.
Do you wonder how you can reach a person different from you in every way? We have a message to communicate. And a universal method. Simply tell the story.
