| Taxi Driver Saved |
| A London newspaper told how a piece of paper left in his cab made a startling change in the life of a taxi driver named Albert Jones of Montreal. The piece of paper was a copy of the Gospel of John. |
| “I began to read it while hanging around stands waiting for a fare,” recalled Jones. “I became interested, got hold of a Bible and spent the next six months reading it.” |
| That was several years ago, and it launched him on a new career. From then on, he spent his time spreading the Word of God among the seamen on the Montreal waterfront. |
| “You can imagine I was very hesitant at first,” said Jones. “This was all new to me. And those sailors let me know where I stood in their eyes. They were pretty scornful to say the least. I always asked permission of the captain or mate before going aboard. Most were courteous, but some looked at me as if I had rocks in my head, but I’m perfectly content to make this my life’s work.” |
| Here are two good verses to consider as we think of this life-changing story: “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ” (Colossians 3:23-24). |
