John was on his way. From where I was seated in the front I could not see him, but by following the stares of those seated along the isle I could tell that he was coming. When he reached the front I realised why it took him so long to get there and why we couldn’t see him...
Walking towards the familiar sight of villagers waiting at our gate for medical attention, I saw John sitting on the ground, obviously in a lot of pain.
"The joy set before Christ, the joy that sustained Him through sacrifice and suffering, was the joy of seeing sinners saved. This should be the joy of every follower of His, the spur to his ambition. Those who realize, even in a limited degree, what redemption means to them and to their fellow men, will comprehend in some measure the vast needs of humanity. Their hearts will be moved to compassion as they see the moral and spiritual destitution of thousands who are under the shadow of a terrible doom, in comparison with which physical suffering fades into nothingness."
