Now what you are reading is truth. Check it out for yourself

I want everyone to read the following quote really carefully and then read my response.

“A very poor woman called a Christian radio station asking for help. A bad, evil man who was listening to this radio program decided to make something out of it. He got her address, called his secretary and ordered her to buy food and take to the woman with the following instruction, "when the woman asks who sent the food, tell her that it’s from the devil.''  When she arrived, the woman was so happy and she started putting the food inside.  The Secretary asked her, ''don't you want to know who sent the food''?? The woman answered. ''NO, it doesn't matter, because when GOD orders, even the devil obeys." The secretary broke into tears. * Now, READ this CAREFULLY * You are a divine project, so shall God accomplish whatever that concerns you. That thing in your life that seems impossible shall be possible. God will take you to a greater height. God is opening your book of Remembrance, because you are next in line to be favoured in Jesus Christ name.  If you want this prayer, press 'LIKE' and write, a big "AMEN" to claim it NOW!! Please share this.”

The picture below is titles “Poor Old Woman” and is the work of Hu Yinghui of Vietnam. This picture was taken in Vietnam. No story just photography.

Similar stories and or pictures of this was also written in Hindi by Abhinav Duggal (at inspirationalquotesstory.in), oskarlewis.com (a blog dated 2010), amritsartemples.in, name-of-the-law.blogspot.com, Taste of Life by Sabi (a blog), quotesdumps.com and many others sites not mentioned.

How did I find out about it? A dear friend read and shared (the picture and the story) from NaijaOnPoint.com from Benin City, Edo, Nigeria via a FaceBook page.  This is allegedly a Christian site, and people were doing just that, praying for this poor woman. I would have too, believed it; but, I am stricken with the check it out first syndrome.

Now tell me very carefully how this woman, who resides in the back land of Vietnam, probably in a shack, called a Christian Radio Station? If she had the money to get the papers together and come to the USA (generally sponsored by a group like Catholic Charities or a relative) do you think she would have called a Christian radio station? It is doubtful that this woman even knows English and is more likely to be Buddhist like the majority of the people in the back country of Vietnam. Be honest with yourself and think about it.

Please understand that I am not telling you not to help someone or pray for them, however there are people mean enough to make up these stories to see how fast they spread through the internet; secretly they are laughing at us and they have made money promoting such stories that are nothing more than someone's imagination.

This is a prime example of why I tell everyone “Please, I would like you to check it out for yourself!”

You have all perpetrated a lie. God will not punish you because in your hearts you felt it was truth and you did act honorably by praying for this “unfortunate woman.” However, whoever started this “false story” is probably laughing at many. That person will be dealt with by God very harshly.

Let it be known, that an honorable person does not have to lie about the work of God or Jesus. Always remember just that point.

“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32)

Keep in prayer for each other.

May God bless you all and keep you safe.
