Word from the Mission Field: 1-21-18 6:00 AM

“He who is dying of hunger must be fed rather than taught.” — Saint Thomas Aquinas

For I was hungry, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink.” — Matthew 25:35

There is a Creole Proverb in Haiti that says, “A hungry stomach cannot hear.” How true. Sometimes, we think “just preaching the Gospel is the answer,” but it takes more than preaching. It takes action. A missionary friend of ours was in Russia, in a poor village passing out Bibles in the Russian language. Suddenly, an elderly woman began shaking the Bible and saying something. When the translator told the missionary, it was this, “I can’t eat this Bible!” My friend, your actions are speaking louder than your words. Remember what I always say, “Someone is watching you. You are their only Bible!!!” Have a great day! Sherry
