Stories

 

Stories - A

Children and adults love a story! It gets you in! Like a lift, once you enter the story it can take you up or down into a whole range of feelings, experiences and the struggle between good and bad. Jesus loved stories, too, and He often used a story to tell us how we should live and how much God loves us. This is the power of the story!

A Child's Faith

During the religious oppression in China in the 1950s, a small child named Mei was in prison with her Christian mother. The child had a remarkable faith and believed that the Spirit comes to all Christians much as the Bible says: “Peter and John placed their hands on [the believers], and they received the Holy Spirit.”

And so she requested and received the Holy Spirit in this way. Meanwhile, unsuspecting Chinese guards let Mei run freely throughout the prison. When Christians outside the prison found a way to smuggle Communion to prisoners, it was Mei who gave it to them - even those in solitary confinement. She said: “I’m not afraid; the Spirit is within me.”

Come Holy Spirit, inspire us with a faith like Mei's.
