A friend asked us if we could find an audio French Old Testament for her.  Her vision is fading.  She can no longer see to read.  She has an audio French New Testament which she uses all the time.  Those are easy to come by.  But she really misses the Old Testament.  We promised her we would see what we could do.

 

That was a month ago.  You cannot believe all we have gone through to try to find the O.T. for her.  We've contacted every group, organization, and individual we could think of who might be able to direct us to the right party.  We've run down every lead.  They've all come to a dead end.  Finally we talked with a lady who said she knows a man who does have a copy of the French O.T. in audio format.  He comes by her office on infrequent occasions.  She promised to ask him next time he showed up.

In the meantime, we talked with one more person who suggested one more possibility.  We spent half a day tracking that lead down, only to come to yet another dead end.  

Time was running out.  We will be seeing our friend on Friday and really, really wanted to be able to grant her request.  Finally Guy suggested we phone the lady who knows the man who has a copy of the audio version we want, on the long shot that she might have learned something.  And so we did.  And that's when the miracle happened.  The man she knew was in her office at that precise moment.  If we could come right over, he would be able to help us out.  Guy practically ran all the way to the office.  The man very kindly downloaded the French O.T. for us and didn't charge a thing.  We couldn't believe it!  After all we have been through, we finally have just what we need, and in the nick of time, too.  God is so amazing!
