Milford


He saw the group coming and knew their ritual.  With a broad smile Bobby yelled out, “Hey Milford where you going when you die?”  The rest of the group was on the edge of laughter.  It didn’t matter what Milford might reply.  It was the gang’s happy game to make fun of the Christian.

“I’m going to heaven to live with my Lord Jesus forever” came the stern reply.  Bobby was laughing so hard he couldn’t contain the spit.  “You hope” he blerted out.  With a beautifully peaceful face and full of sincerity, Milford said, “No Bobby I know.”  The boys just let the laughter fade and walked away.

You see, some Christians just don’t play fair.  While some may hold that knowledge with hope or a vague faith, some believe the Lord Jesus as if to a knowing.  The faith of these is almost unshakable.

By His Grace
