JESUS TO THEM

A missionary, lost at sea, washed up on edge of a remote native village. Half-dead from exposure, starvation, and sea water, the natives nursed him back to health. He lived with them 20 years; never made a confession of faith, no songs, no sermons, no Scripture; but attended the sick long into the night, gave food to the hungry, visited the lonely, taught the uneducated, took the side of those that had been wronged. After the 20 years, missionaries come and preach about a man named Jesus. "He’s lived among us for many years; come and we will show you." And they took the missionaries to the hut of the lost missionary.
