Hello everyone. Praise the Lord!
Here is a story from John Wesley's Journal that I wanted to share.
John Wesley had a conversation with a porter who opened a new door to the spiritual awakening that would happen to him some years in the future. The man proved to be the first truly grateful person he had ever met.
While the porter had only one coat and had consumed nothing all day but a drink of water, his heart still over flowed with praise to God. John remarked, “You thank God when you have nothing to wear, nothing to eat, and no bed to lie upon. What else do you thank Him for?”
The man answered, “I thank Him, that He has given me my life and being, a heart to love Him, and a desire to serve Him.”From this testimony, John realized there was something more to following Jesus than he had ever experienced before—and this was something he wanted.
