“Save, Lord! May the King answer us when we call” (Ps 20:9).
NOW magazine recounted the story of a believer who shared the gospel with a flight attendant at London’s Heathrow airport. As they parted company, the young woman said, “Here, take this,” and placed the book she had been reading in the flight attendant’s hand. It was a book by Francis Schaeffer, with the believer’s name and address in the flyleaf. As they went their separate ways, the Christian prayed, “O Lord, please send a Christian on that flight to follow her up.”
Some time later, the flight attendant contacted the believer who had given her the book and told her the rest of the story. She had been sitting in a jump seat reading the book when a man walked up to her and said, “What do you think of the book you’re reading?” “Well,” she said, “I’ve only been a Christian a few minutes, so I really can’t understand it all.” “Perhaps I can help you,” the man replied. “My name is Francis Schaeffer.”
