On a side note, a few weeks back Stephanie and I were witnessing to a little boy of about 7 years old. We find young kids home alone all the time and this was no different, so typically we like to show them God's name from the Bible. We did so and he was very appreciative. After we said our goodbyes to him and were walking to the next house we see this little boy running up the hill. He had gone back to his house and picked up 2 little candies (which are like gold here) and was running to give us each a little candy. What an appreciation! We told him we would bring him something in return, the Bible Stories Book. Well tonight we went back to visit him and his cousin was there probably in his early 20's. After explaining to him why we were there, he went and got the little boy, the little boy was so excited to get his book, that after I read the introduction to him, he immediately started reading it and asked his cousin if he could go inside to continue reading. We then started talking in more detail to the cousin after the little boy went back inside and offered him the Bible Teach Book. After a nice discussion, we are going back next week to study with the little boy in the Bible Story Book and the older cousin in the Bible Teach Book. It really warms your heart when you see young ones in the ministry with such an appreciation.
