Coming Home to Christ
“I am writing you a few lines because I think I ought to, although it is extremely hard to write to a perfect stranger, but I feel you are a friend and a dear one at that already.... I was home on leave and returning back to barracks, and passing near a theater, my attention was drawn to a crowd of people listening to a man who was doing his very best to convince the crowd of the love of Christ. I stopped and listened and it did me so much good. He told us all how he had been saved, what he had been and what he was now. After listening for some time I was presented with a New Testament, and on inspection I found your name and address―hence this letter. Arriving back in camp, when I lay down to try to sleep I could not for thinking of my sins. Tears came to my eyes, the first for many a day, and I was not comforted until I had prayed to Him and asked for forgiveness. I awoke this morning and felt easier in my mind than I remember ever doing before. Dear friend, do please remember me when you pray tonight. Please do write to me soon.... Thanking you for the Testament, and hoping you will have every success in your work. ― D.J.C.”
