"No, I'm not afraid of you. Come in. <strong>The</strong> Lord told me to invite you in."<br />

<strong>The</strong>n he became frightened!<br />

He did not appear to be over nineteen or twenty and was a clean-cut young man. When he<br />

stepped in, I asked him to clean around my kitchen faucets. If the cloth worked there, I decided, I<br />

would buy it from him.<br />

He went into the kitchen and began to rub hard on the sink faucets.<br />

Presently I asked, "Are you Jewish?"<br />

"I sure am," he answered.<br />

"So am I," I said.<br />

I wanted to set him at ease immediately. <strong>The</strong>n I began to witness to him about the Lord<br />

Jesus Christ. <strong>The</strong> kitchen sink faucet was getting shinier by the moment. He did not stay long, but<br />

long enough for me to witness to him about Jesus, long enough for him to drink two glasses of<br />

lemonade, long enough for him to receive a copy of my life story, a New Testament, and $2.95 for<br />

the cloth. After he left I felt that my heart and home were filled with the presence of God. Though I<br />

could not go out that day to witness, the Lord had sent someone to my door. O, the joy of<br />

witnessing! We may not all be soulwinners, but we are all to be witnesses, in one way or another.<br />

"WHAT KIND OF A JEW ARE YOU?"<br />

I have a sister the same age as my daughter. I love that little sister of mine. She is just like<br />

my daughter and I try to meet her at least once a month for lunch.<br />

<strong>This</strong> particular day, I said to my sister, "I want to buy some artificial ferns."<br />

"Well, let's go over here to this store. It's a nice place and I think we can find what you<br />

want there," she suggested.<br />

We found it to be a first- class place. We stopped at a counter and were looking at this and<br />

that when I noticed a lady at the next counter looking intently at me. As we went from counter to<br />

counter, I would forget her for a moment, but when I would look around again, there she was at the<br />

next counter looking at us. Well, I thought she was going daffy, or that she was a store detective.<br />

Finally she came to me and said, "Madam, I haven't been able to take my eyes off of you.<br />

Do you know that you look very distinctive?"<br />

"No, I didn't know that. I wasn't conscious of it. What do you mean?"
