A month ago, I was coming home from church Sunday afternoon and saw a car dodge something in the interstate ahead. I slowed and saw a huge 6X6 chunk of wood that had fallen off a truck laying in the roadway. I thought of someone hitting that thing and having a terrible accident, so I pulled over, backed up, and got out of the car. I carefully watched the traffic and dragged the wood out of the roadway and onto the shoulder. As I got back into my car, several cars flew by me on the now clear highway. None of them knew of the danger that had been cleared, and none of them waved thanking me. They were oblivious to what had just happened. Hey, when you place a gospel tract at a strategic location at the grocery store, you are potentially helping someone avoid a tragic end to their life. They may pass by oblivious of their spiritual danger ahead, or they may pick up that tract and learn of the love of God. I Peter 3:15, “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.”
