8-19-2015-TELL ME ABOUT JESUS-MAN ABUSED ASKED ME
"REMARKS"
THE FOLLOWING IS A STORY ABOUT 2 BROTHERS, ONE WHO IS SLOW MENTALLY AND THE ONE WHO ASKED ME TO TELL HIM ABOUT JESUS, AND THE OTHER HIS STEP BROTHER, WHO WAS WATCHING OVER HIM.
ONE OF THEM WAS KNOCKING ON MY DOOR THIS WEEK AND AS I ANSWERED THE DOOR, THE STEP BROTHER LOOKED REALLY WORE OUT AND WERE VERY THIRSTY, SO I GAVE THEM WATER AND ASKED WHAT WAS GOING ON AND HERE IS THE STORY.
THE STEP BROTHER OF THE SLOW MAN SAID THE SLOW MAN HAD BEEN TORTURED AND KEPT LOCKED UP IN A CLOSET AND WAS CUFFED AND KEPT OUT OF SIGHT DURING HIS YOUTH AND OF COURSE SUFFERED MENTAL DISRUPTION OF HIS NORMAL FACILITIES, WHICH WOULD BE EXPECTED UNDER SUCH HORRIFIC SITUATION. THE SLOW BROTHER ALTHOUGH ABUSED WAS STILL NICE TO BE AROUND AND I FELT HURT WITH HIM.
THE STEPBROTHER SAID THAT HE CAME TO DALLAS TO PICKUP THE SLOW BROTHER FROM SOME MISSION WHICH HE DIDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE IN SO HIS STEPBROTHER CAME AND PICKED HIM UP BUT UNFORTUNATELY WHEN THEY CAME OUT TO LEAVE, THE CAR THEY HAD WASN'T THERE ANYMORE AND IT WAS THOUGHT TO HAVE BEEN TOWED AWAY. THIS IS WHERE THE TWO ENDED UP HERE AT "THE CHURCH AT TEXAS" BECAUSE THE CAR WAS JUST A JUNKER ANYWAY AND NOT WORTH THE COST AND TROUBLE TO REDEEM IT.
SO I OFFERED TO LET THEM STAY IN ONE OF THE ROOMS FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO WITH THEM?
THIS IS WHAT THE STEP BROTHER SAID TO ME, HE SAID HIS SLOW BROTHER, AFTER HAVING BEEN WALKING FOR MILES WHEN THEY GOT HERE, SAID TO HIS STEP BROTHER, DO YOU THINK JESUS REALLY LOVES US? AFTER MEETING ME HERE, THEY WERE SATISFIED TO PROCLAIM, JESUS DOES CARE AND LOVE US.
AFTER I LED THEM TO THEIR ROOM TO SPEND THE NIGHT, THE SLOW BROTHER ASKED HIS STEPBROTHER TO ASK ME TO "TELL HIM ABOUT JESUS", WHICH I DID EVENTUALLY DID A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER WHEN I DROVE THEM TO THE BUS STATION AFTER WE HAD DECIDED TO SEND THEM BACK TO FORT SMITH ARK WHERE THEIR HOME BASE WAS TO REORGANIZE THE DIRECTION OF THEIR LIFE THEY NEEDED TO PURSUE AND GET HELP FOR HIS SLOW BROTHER.
SO AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS OF REST AND FOOD AND CLOTHES AND MONEY THE CHURCH GAVE THEM, ALTHOUGH THE $200 IT COST TO PUT THEM ON A BUS BACK TO FORT SMITH AND THE EXTRA SPENDING MONEY I GAVE THEM, WAS MOSTLY MONEY THE PEOPLE HAD GIVEN TO ME AT THE SATURDAY, SABBATH, CONCERTS I DO EVERY SATURDAY FOR THE POOR FUND AT "THE CHURCH AT TEXAS" AND I WAS TRULY GRATEFUL TO THESE PEOPLE WHO GAVE FOR THE POOR AND ESPECIALLY THESE TWO.
WELL I PUT THEM ON A BUS TODAY HEADED TO FORT SMITH ARK AND I TOLD THE SLOW BROTHER ALL ABOUT JESUS, YAH'SHUA ON THE WAY TO THE BUS STATION AND I WAS TOUCHED BY HIS DEMEANOR TO ACCEPT THIS LOVING SAVIOR AND NOW FRIEND OF THESE TWO BROTHERS.
