I Saw Zao Last Night, and Chad Olson didn't...

...and neither did Mike Kaply, Allen Rigg, or Tommy Lovelace.

Rees Howells returned from he and his wife's missionary work in Africa after six years. Everyone said that they'd never seen a missionary couple come on fulough looking so well. "We've been having six years' vacation," he said. They insisted that they take a rest, which they found even six weeks hard to bear. They wanted to get back at work. They charged him to share all over the English speaking world what God had been doing. He couldn't have picked a better job at the time. He said, "I couldn't think of any position to compare with that, preaching to tens of thousands of people, and the Lord bllessing. Before I was converted, I had it in me to travel the world, and gave that up, and here the Lord was giving it back."

Isn't that cool?

While speaking at an event later, he made an appeal to the large audience to surrender. The whole audience, and chairman, speakers, and congregation, rose to their feet. The speaker who was to follow decided it would be out of place to follow that, so they closed it. Right afterwards a few ministers prayed with Howells. He put before them the fact of so many young people responding to God's call and the urgent need of more training facilities in Wales, and he suggested they ask the Lord for a training college. God told him to "be careful" about what he prayed for, because God was going to build the college through him! Thus began another adventure in faith where miracles of money not being their suddenly arriving to the exact amount just minutes before it had to be paid!

God takes care of His people, doesn't He?
