God’s grace

Sam started feeling sick while he was visiting one of the houses in the village. My fellow team members who were sharing at the same house reported feeling lots of opposition as they were sharing the gospel.

For the next two days, Sam could not participate in ministry and ate very little. We prayed earnestly and asked God to heal him. If Sam did not start to improve, we would have to leave the village three days early.

The next day, he started feeling better. And two days later, after sharing the gospel at the local high school, 10 students gave their lives to Jesus.

God healed Sam and showed his grace to us by saving those students. If we had left early, those students might not have heard the gospel.
