When every eye was fixed on him, he began,-- "Children, I have a very short story to tell you to-day about myself.
Years ago, when I was a little boy, my Sabbath school teacher told us a story, one morning, which was the means of bringing me to Jesus.

I have to thank that lady, next to God, that I am standing here to-day a minister of Christ.

She was not our regular teacher, but was a stranger; I never saw her after that Sabbath.

Perhaps you can imagine how I have longed, since I became a man and a minister, to find that lady, and tell her what one hour of faithful teaching did for me.

I thought it would help her, encourage her.
