Do you know what the
capital of England is?
Yes, it is London.
Today, I would like to
tell you a story told in London, England a long time ago.
|

One summer day, it was
raining like cats and dogs in London.
People moved here and
there to avoid the rain.
|
5
|
|
When there was heavy
rain, a man tried knocking on one door of a farm on the outskirts of London.
|
6
|
|
When the house owner
opened, the man replied,
¡°I am sorry to
bother you. But I don't have an umbrella would is be possible if I could
borrow one of your umbrellas?
|
7
|
|
The farmer did not have
the heart to help.
¡°Oh, wait a
minute."
He thought to himself, '
If I give it to him, then I will never get it back.'
|
8
|
|
So he decided to bring
out the worst umbrella of his to give to the man..
|
9
|
|
"I do not have a
good umbrella. If you need it, you can take it."
"Oh, yes I will take
it thankfully. I will surely get it back to you."
|
10
|
|
And the people held the
umbrella over a woman and left there.
The farmer was watching
them merrily.
|
11
|
|
A few days later, the
farmer received a package.
|
12
|
|
The farmer wondered what
it was inside of it so he opened it quickly.
There was the umbrella he
had lent a few days ago and a letter tucked nicely inside.
|
13
|
|
When the farmer opened
the letter he was so surprised.
It was written,
"Thank you very much" and was signed by Queen Elizabeth.
|
14
|
|
Only then did the farmer
realize it was the Queen who had lent the umbrella from him. The farmer felt
sorry and said to himself.
"If only I had known
the woman was the Queen, I would have given the best umbrella I had to
her..." he thought but he could not take back what he had already done.
|

|
Many people live on earth
with not the right heart nor actions about our king Jesus like the farmer.
They rode roughshod over God, Jesus came on earth for us and they did not
even try to listen to his words.
|
16
|
|
We can not go to heaven
because of Adam and Eve's sin.
But Jesus came to save us
and to let us be with Him in heaven.
God, sent Jesus with the
same human body as us to come to die on the cross to replace us. If anyone
believes Jesus, they can get eternal life and have the way of heaven opened
to them.
|
17
|
|
Today is the day that
celebrates Jesus coming to save us on the earth.
Today is Christmas. It is
a very glad and blessed day.
Because Jesus came, you
and I, who believe Jesus get eternal life and will spend it together with
Jesus in heaven.
|
18
|
|
We must give thanks to
Jesus for what He has done today.
Let's tell others about
the owner of our life, Jesus, who let us go to heaven to someone who does not
know Jesus this holiday season.
