John 3:16

     In the city of Chicago, one cold, dark night,
a blizzard was setting in. A little boy was
selling newspapers on the corner, the people
were in and out of the cold.  The little boy
was so cold that he wasn't trying to sell many
papers.

      He walked up to a policeman and said, "Mister,
you wouldn't happen to know where a poor boy
could find a warm place to sleep tonight would you?
You see, I sleep in a box up around the corner there
and down the alley and it's awful cold in there,
for tonight. Sure would be nice to have a warm place
to stay."

     The policeman looked down at the little boy and
said, "You go down the street to that big white house
and you knock on the door.  When they come out the
door you just say John 3:16 and they will let you in."

     So he did, he walked up the steps to the door, and
knocked on the door and a lady answered.  He looked up
and said, "John 3:16." The lady said "Come on in,Son."
She took him in and she sat him down in a split bottom
rocker in front of a great big old fireplace and she
went off. He sat there for a while, and thought to himself
"John 3:16.... I don't understand it, but it sure makes a
cold boy warm."

     Later she came back and asked him "Are you hungry?"
He said, "Well, just a little. I haven't eaten in a couple
of days and I guess I could stand a little bit of food."
The lady took him in the kitchen and sat him down to a
table full of wonderful food.  He ate and ate until he
couldn't eat any more. Then he thought to himself
"John 3:16... Boy, I sure don't understand it, but it
sure makes a hungry boy full."

     She took him upstairs to a bathroom to a huge bathtub
filled with warm water and he sat there and soaked for
a while.  As he soaked, he thought to himself,
"John 3:16... I sure don't understand it, but it sure
makes a dirty boy clean.  You know, I've not had a bath,
a real bath, in my whole life. The only bath I ever had
was when I stood in front of that big old fire hydrant as
they flushed it out."

      The lady came in and got him, and took him to
a room and tucked him into a big old feather bed and
pulled the covers up around his neck and kissed him
goodnight and turned out the lights.  As he laid in
the darkness and looked out the window at the snow
coming down on that cold night he thought to himself,
"John 3:16...I don't understand it, but it sure makes
a tired boy rested."

      The next morning she came back up and took him
down again to that same big table full of food.
After he ate she took him back to that same big old
split bottom rocker in front of the fireplace and
she took a big old Bible and sat down in front of him
and she looked up at and she asked, "Do you understand
John 3:16?" He said, "No, Ma'am, I don't.

The first time I ever heard it was last night when the
policeman told me to use it."

     She opened the Bible to John 3:16 , and she began to
explain to him about Jesus.  Right there in front of that
big old fireplace he gave his heart and life to Jesus.
He sat there and thought, "John 3:16. I don't understand
it, but it sure makes a lost boy  feel safe."

     You know, I have to confess I don't understand
it either, how God would be willing to send His Son
to die for me, and how Jesus would agree to do such a
thing.  I don't understand it either, but it sure does
make life worth living.

John 3:16

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not
perish, but have everlasting life.
