Gifted Hands

A while ago I received a gift card from House of James (a Christan book store in Abbotsford).  I'm not so much into reading books, much to my shame, but I do enjoy a good movie as you may have guessed already.

Hubby and I walked into the DVD section and were set back by all the movies that they offer.  After perusing the descriptions of almost all of them, we chose one called Gifted Hands:  The Ben Carson Story.

Run, don't walk, to your local Christian book store and purchase this movie.  You will not be disappointed.

Here is another youtube video of some inspiring words from Ben Carson.

And they are indeed inspiring.

Robber of the Cruel Streets

George Muller

has always been a hero of mine

George Muller (1805 - 1898) was a German playboy who found Christ and gave his life to serve Christ unreservedly. His mission was to rescue orphans from the wretched street life that enslaved so many children in England during the time of Charles Dickens and Oliver Twist. Muller did rescue, care for, feed, and educate such children by the thousands. The costs were enormous for such a great work. yet, amazingly, he never asked anyone for money. Instead he prayed, and his children never missed a meal.

I found a wonderful documentary on youtube beautifully depicting Muller's life and mission. This link is for part one of six. When the video ends click on the subject line at the top of the video screen. It will take you to youtube.com and from there you can find parts 2 - 6 in a column on the right side. The documentary totals 59 minutes.
