WORD TO THOSE who doubt

My grandfather - his mother's side - has smoked a cigarette in almost
   throughout his life. I remember when I was a child, I
   hear a strong cough and sometimes make no
   can breathe. I am worried. I do not want him
   died without receiving the love and forgiveness and salvation
   of the Savior.

   So, on a very rare occasion, when men
   My parents let me and my brother lived at home with
   grandfather while they attended church services Sunday afternoon, I
   mustered the courage to ask a question
   constantly present in my mind: "Grandpa," I asked with
   timidly, "if my grandfather thought that grandfather would go to heaven
   if later my grandfather died? "

   He stopped smoking and tapped a cigarette on the tip of the asbaknya
   is full of ash, and answered with a flat and raspy voice, "Oh, I
   hope I'll be there. "

   "Did he have Jesus in my grandfather's heart?" I asked
   hopefully.

   "Do not worry," my grandfather replied with a smile. "I think he
   will let me. "

   When back against the couch, my heart is not calm. Along
   I can remember, I pray for him every night before
   sleep. Did Jesus answered my prayers?

   At the time I was about 15 years old, my grandfather decided
   to stop smoking. On one day, my grandfather told
   grandmother that he had removed all cigarette packs and no
   will never smoke again. However, the influence of cigarettes on his body
   because the habit has done over the years that
   can not be repaired. Not long after the decision is
   surprising to get rid of tobacco, my grandfather was diagnosed with
   cancer. I still pray for him, and now I have time
   limited, 6 months.

   Grandpa is still refusing to accept the help offered by the
   Savior. Your friends and family to talk to him about
   the reality of spiritual needs. However, he refused them with an attitude
   the same, which he never did when I first asked
   him. I fear rejection grandfather at the time, when
   his eternal destiny was right at the crossroads, that he would
   lost forever. But Jesus, generous Helper,
   will make any effort to prevent that happening.

   6-month period prescribed for the grandfather had passed. Grandfather
   responding to treatment well, but his strength gradually
   weakened. After some time in hospital because
   pneumonia (pneumonia), my grandfather began attending the church when
   he feels is able to go. It was there that he
   met with Benjamin, a young man who gave
   special attention to grandfather and often hugged and kissed her.
   Grandpa started to bring candy to Benjamin, and it strengthens
   relationship. Two friends are building a relationship.

   One time when Benjamin knew that the grandfather again treated at home
   ill with pneumonia, he became agitated and asked her parents
   him to visit Grandpa Wold. Grandfather treated only briefly. Thus,
   when Benjamin came to visit, my grandfather was in the house. In space
   guest was, exhausted and weak from illness, my grandfather
   cried when Benjamin asked if he had Jesus in
   in his heart. Grandpa replied that he did not have Jesus, and
   Benjamin's grandfather encouraged him to ask Jesus to be Savior
   Survival. Grandpa was agreed, and my grandfather Benjamin led the
   a brief prayer inviting Jesus to come into the heart
   kakek dan mengampuni dosa-dosanya.

   After the prayer, my grandfather speak freely about his faith
   in Jesus. Arrogance turned into faith.

   Love for many years guarded carefully, now
   flowing freely. And, he mentioned from time to time
   that he wished he had waited so long to receive relief
   the forgiveness of Jesus and receive deliverance from His love.

   A few years later, just before leaving home for
   My last year at university, I said something that
   it is my farewell to the last
   grandfather. Almost 7 years since my grandfather was diagnosed with esophageal cancer,
   now is the time in this world truly about to end.
   With great sadness, I whispered in her ear as she hugged
   a weak body, 'Goodbye, Grandpa. I love Grandpa.
   I'll see Grandpa again in heaven. "A few weeks later,
   Messiah saves grandfather from cancer and took him home
   His home.

   As someone who waited to be rescued until the last moment
   life in the world, my grandfather did not want other people he knew
   doing the same thing as he had done. With
   quiet, he warned that those who refused for too long
   be lost forever. And, as someone who saved
   towards the end of his life, he wanted me to tell you:
   today is the best time ever to invite Interpreters
   Congratulations - Savior who can calm the raging sea,
   hurricane, and save the souls of the lost.
