Skeptic Scoffed at a Little Girl

At an open-air Gospel meeting the preacher asked for testimonies. While this was going on a skeptic was passing by just when the testimony of a saved drunkard was being given. He stopped and listened. The former drunkard was telling how Jesus had wrought a miracle and saved his poor soul. The skeptic scoffingly made a few remarks to those standing near him. He said, “It was nothing more than a dream, religion saving a man in this manner.” No one answered him; but God had His way of dealing with him. Among the listeners was a little girl about ten years old. She had known the misery of a drunkard’s home. She heard the remark of the skeptic and, going up to him, she said: “Please, sir, if it is only a dream, please don’t wake him-that is my daddy!” (Source Unknown).
