Listen from:
It was a hot day in Burma and the boys and girls at school were busy with their lessons. Just then a strange gentleman entered the room. He told the teacher he would like to give each boy and girl a text card. She was very pleased for she loved the Lord Jesus, and wanted all her pupils to come to know Him as their Saviour too. So they all went home happily that afternoon with a text.
Several days later one boy came to the teacher and said, “I took home the card and pinned it on our wall, but Mother told me to take it down. She doesn’t love Jesus, but worships an idol, and she didn’t like my text there. I’ve taken it down and hidden the card where she can’t find it, but I’ve got the verse in a safe place too it’s in my heart.”
“Thy Word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee.” Psa. 119:1111Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. (Psalm 119:11).
