I have gotten so that I PLOW through books.
I have to know.
I have to learn.
But books by Tom Doyle just won't let me do that.
I have to stop and just be in awe of God.
Sometimes I cry.
Sometimes I worship.
Sometimes I just sit in silence.
Doyle's books are about Muslims coming to Jesus.
I just penciled a note in the margin of "Standing In The Fire;"
"My heart is bursting!"
"Why haven't you cornered me and made me confess that I've left Islam?"
(husband and Imam)
"I thought about it, Huda. I really did.
. . .
" But the changes I saw in you were hard to believe. The loving way you treated the children and me was so amazing that, well . . ." Adullah blushed almost imperceptively.
"Honestly, I didn't want it to stop."
P. 59
When I think something is impossible or too hard, even for God,
I remind myself of stories like these.
