Margaret was reading to the residents of the care facility
where Dad Jespersen lives. After the
story I was sitting in the living room, and Ruby (who is in her late 80s), and who
suffers from dementia walked in. She saw
me and broke out in a big smile, and said, “Do you know what? Our teacher is wonderful!” She was referring to Margaret who had just
read to them several stories from the excellent children’s book, “The Jesus
Storybook.”
“Our teacher is a real Christian from the inside out!” Ruby
continued. “She really knows how to
read a story. It is as if she wrote it
herself. She lives it! She teaches us everything that we missed
learning before. Our teacher is really
wonderful! She is amazing!”
No matter what we do in life as Christians, let us make
sure, we live that others can say of us, “They are really wonderful! They are Christians form the inside out!”
