I remember visiting a good Christian gentleman in hospital, his operation had gone wrong and he lay seriously ill. As I sat by his bed he opened his heart and told me about the man opposite who’d been complaining about everything and contaminating the ward with a continuous flow of filthy language. “A few days ago he had the same operation as me but his was a success and he’ll soon be going home. I know I shouldn’t say it, but it doesn’t seem fair.”
I prayed for guidance then said, “But you wouldn’t like to be in that man’s shoes on the day of judgement, would you?!!” With a smile he replied, “Definitely not!” The next day he also went home – to heaven!
