A young fellow, brought up in the poorest circumstances, had a job in a hospital. He had had only a few months' schooling in his lifetime, and lacked all the culture and polished manners that most of his companions and fellow workers displayed. Too, there was much to be desired in his appearance and personality, and at times he seemed ungrateful for favors shown him.
But this unlearned and backward young fellow dedicated himself to reading the Bible. In 12 years he read it 160 times, and the New Testament 300 times; in fact he scarcely read any other book, paper or magazine.
So great was the change wrought in his soul, his attitude, his appearance and his ways, that one would hardly have recognized him to be the same young boy of former years. But it all came from his faithfully reading the Word of God.
Little by little, as he read the living Word, this great change took place in his life. It also showed up in. the lab, for he became exceptionally useful owing to the careful work he did. Then later, he became one of the best pharmacists.
Let Him transform your life into a useful and happy one. "If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." Romans 10:99That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. (Romans 10:9).
