A Lesson in Love

warrior of the woodland, struggling against extreme odds, traveling dangerous trails, fighting the many enemies of nature. This is the job of the guardian of the forest, Ranger Bill, pouring rain, freezing cold, blistering heat, snow, floods, bears, rattlesnakes, mountain lions.

Yes, all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done. The young fellow you just heard selling his papers is Tommy Woodruff. There's quite a story involved in his young life, a story of love, understanding, and a close walk with the Lord.

Tommy set the whole town of Nadi-Pai in a fire with his problem. Everyone was interested in him because Tommy quite unconsciously lives a very real and practical Christian life. say this isn't getting into our story, is it? This is the story, a lesson in love. Let's go over to the Nadi Pine Grammar School and listen to a certain young man tell his classmates

his story. This young fellow has the reputation of being the best storyteller in the school. And there they were all lined up ready to fight each other. God's people on one side and the full of stains on the other. They stood there looking at each other and trying to decide how to get the jump on the other guy. And suddenly a great big man stepped forward from the enemy's

army. You know he was a giant goliath. He looked terrible and tough and he was covered from head to foot with armor and he carried a big sword that would take two regular sized guys to swing it and God's people shook with terror when they saw the giant.

They didn't have anybody that could fight him until David stepped up and he says, I'll fight him. Well, Goliath laughed and roared. You can hear him four a mile. But David wasn't scared. Not a bit.
