Letter from Larry

Good Morning Everyone:

Today's story is a powerful story about a person going to commit 

suicide and how a phone call changed it. God does act in mysterious

ways.

A Call from God

One Saturday night, a pastor was working late and decided to call his 

wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't

answer the phone. The pastor let it ring many times. He thought it was

odd that she didn't answer but decided to wrap up a few things and try

again in a few minutes. When he tried again, she answered right away.

He asked her why she hadn't answered before, and she said that it 

hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on

their merry ways.

The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the church office,

which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night. The man that

he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday night.

The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about.

Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer." 

The pastor remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing

him, explaining that he'd intended to call his wife.

The man said, "That's okay. Let me tell you my story. You see, I 

was planning to commit suicide on Saturday night, but before I 

did, I prayed, 'God if you're there, and you don't want me to do this,

give me a sign now.' At that point, my phone started to ring. I looked

at the caller ID, and it said, 'Almighty God'. I was afraid to answer!"

The church that the pastor attends is called Almighty God Tabernacle. 

*****

May God Bless and keep you and yours!!!

Larry
