The Faithful Bus Driver

Norman Geisler, as a child, went to a DVBS because he was invited by some neighbor children. He went back to the same church for Sunday School classes for 400 Sundays. Each week he was faithfully picked up by a bus driver. Week after week he attended church, but never made a commitment to Christ. Finally, during his senior year in High School, after being picked up for church over 400 times, he did commit his life to Christ. What if that bus driver had given up on Geisler at 395?  What if the bus driver had said, “This kid is going nowhere spiritually, why waste any more time on him?” (God Came Near, Max Lucado, Multnomah Press, 1987, p. 133).
