Thanking the electrician
A training was held in this unreached area of the world. Each participant learned the Genesis 1-3 stories and were asked to practice them. From the third day of the training participants could share their first experience of using the stories. This was one of their experiences:
Jemillah owned a small shop that had continuous electrical problems. During the training week, the electrician had to come out once again and fix her electricity. As he finished, Jemillah said to him, “I want to thank you for your hard work on my shop. You are always patient and come quickly. For a long time I’ve been trying to think of a suitable way to thank you. I would like to tell you a story that has brought me hope and changed my life. I hope it will bring you life too.”
After telling her Genesis 1-3 stories the electrician said, “Could you please tell me more of these stories next time I visit. I want to learn more about this coming Saviour.”
