An old shoemaker, whose family had all departed, felt sorry for himself and wished to die. But a friend chided him, insisting if one lived for God, everything in life became easy.
So the shoemaker applied himself to the Gospels and found himself irresistably drawn to reading more and more. One night, near bedtime, the shoemaker hears God tell him, "I am coming to visit you."
The shoemaker doesn't believe it, at first. But three visitors to his home soon prove otherwise.
