Do You Know Jesus?

This story was shared at the MO Baptist Convention. The pastor in First Baptist of Leesburg, Florida shared at the Executive Committee meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention that while flying on a plane he sat next to a young lady who had the physical problem called "Down Syndrome".

She was very talkative and this pastor thought well, I won't get any rest sitting next to this lady. Sure enough, just as soon as they got up in the air, she nudged him and said, "Sir, do you eat candy?"

And he said, "No."

She said, "Good because candy rots your teeth."

In a little bit she nudged him again and said, "Sir, do you smoke?"

He said, "No."

And she said, "Well, good. Because smoking causes cancer."

Said they went on for a little while and she nudged him again and said, "Sir, do you know Jesus?"

And this pastor smiled and looked at the young lady and said, "Yes, I do and thank you for asking."

Went on a little bit further and the girl nudged him and said, "Ask those questions to the man next to you. Go ahead, do it." she said.

So the pastor looked at the man next to him and said, "Sir, do you chew candy? Sir, do you smoke, sir, do you know Jesus."

And then this pastor shared that the man next to him began to open up his heart and share where he was emotionally and in his relationships with his wife and through the conversation this man gave his life to Jesus Christ.

Friend, we have a message that we are supposed to share. When we share, we are serving our Lord.

Do you know Jesus as your personal Savior?.... Why not accept Him as your Savior and Lord today?
The Bible says, "Now is the acceptable time, behold, now is the day of salvation" (2 Corinthians 6:2)...
