THE THINGS THAT HAPPEN!

Have you ever heard an unexpected sound in your house? Maybe a tree branch was scratching on the door or the wind made something slide across a table. A young family in South Asia was cleaning at their new home when they heard a noise. They looked around, listened, and put down the things in their hands—water and cookies—then went to another room. Not two minutes later, they heard the sound again. They just knew someone was in their apartment. They ran back to where they first heard the sound just in time to see a monkey. The monkey had come in through the balcony door. Now it was sitting out on the balcony, watching them, AND eating their cookies! The things that happen in South Asia!

Another time, the family and two other workers were driving down the road. Remember, this is South Asia. There was a cow in the middle of the road, and it would not budge. The father honked and honked at the thing, but it just sat there. One of the other workers got out of the car and went up to the cow. She prodded the cow until it slowly got up and moved out of the way. She got back in the car and said, “I’ve always wanted to do that.” The things that happen in South Asia are really pretty funny.

Thank God for people who are willing to live in a place where they see monkeys and cows almost every day. This young family has a little girl who will celebrate her first birthday this week. People in South Asia give sweets to their friends on their own birthdays, so this family is going to bake a huge batch of cookies. They are going to take some to all their neighbors in their new apartment building. Please pray that they will be able to make new friends and be able to tell the friends about Jesus’ love.

Maybe YOU could give your neighbors some sweets and tell them that Jesus loves them too!
