Have a blessed Day,
A member of a certain church, who previously had been attending services regularly, stopped going. After a few weeks, the preacher decided to visit
him.
It was a chilly evening. The preacher found the man at home alone, sitting
before a blazing fire. Guessing the reason for his preachers visit, the
man welcomed him, led him to a comfortable chair near the fireplace and
waited.
The preacher made himself at home but said nothing. In the grave silence,
he contemplated the dance of the flames around the burning logs. After
some minutes, the preacher took the fire tongs, carefully picked up a
brightly burning ember and placed it to one side of the hearth all alone
then he sat back in his chair, still silent.
The host watched all this in quiet contemplation. As the one lone ember's
flame flickered and diminished, there was a momentary glow and then its
fire was no more. Soon it was cold and .
Not a word had been spoken since the initial greeting. The preacher
glanced at his watch and realized it was time to leave. He slowly stood
up, picked up the cold, ember and placed it back in the middle of the
fire. Immediately it began to glow, once more with the light and warmth of
the burning coals around it.
As the preacher reached the door to leave, his host said with a tear
running down his cheek, 'Thank you so much for your visit and especially
for the fiery sermon. I shall be back in church next Sunday.'
We live in a world today, which tries to say too much with too little.
Consequently, few listen. Sometimes the best sermons are the ones left
unspoken.
