Maria

Last week I was talking to our friend who helps us with cleaning once a week, Maria. She heard that the sun was getting closer to the earth and it would be hotter now. Since she is bothered very much by heat, she was very worried! First I explained global warming a bit. Then I told her what the Bible says about not worrying about tomorrow. The next week I wrote down some passages for her to read and wrote out a couple of verses.

When I gave it to her she clasped the paper and said, "Oh, this is a gift! No one has done this for me before."

I was struck by her response. How often do we consider the Scriptures a gift to be treasured?
