>Geroge Muller has greatly influenced and blessed my own life, and I recently received this email from a sister:
Hello, I just read the post of 7 Feb, 2008 on George Mueller telling of his faith & of his assertation that, “In answer to my prayers, thousands of souls have been saved, ” he went on. “I shall meet tens of thousands of them in Heaven.” I just want to say that our prayers & work for the Lord may be more far reaching than any of us could ever imagine. My great-grandmother was orphaned & placed in George Mueller’s care when she was 8 in 1854. Her sister was taken in by an aunt who felt she couldn’t care for both girls. Mary Ann received a careful Christian upbringing in the orphanage, she was a godly women and raised godly children. To this day I feel that dear man’s prayers have been a blessing in my family. My own two daughters have confessed the Lord & it is a blessing beyond price, a truly precious heritage. Mary Ann’s sister did not have this blessing although she was more blessed with worldly goods. When my grandmother met her in 1920, she was a wealthy, proud & cold woman with no apparent love for the Lord. God’s ways are indeed not our ways!
I love to share this with people, it is often an encouragement to me.
In Christ, Miriam
