An old Indian in Oklahoma was asked, “How did Christ save you? You say that you are saved. How did He do it?”

The old Indian took some dead leaves and laid them in a little circle. Then he took a worm and put it inside that circle. Next he set fire all the way around those leaves. As the fire burned, the worm crawled one direction, and another. Finding himself encompassed by the flames, the worm drew as far away from the fire as he could and curled up to die. The old Indian then reached down his hand, picked up the worm, and placed it safely away from fire. The Indian said, “That is what Jesus did to me. I was perishing and dying, and He lifted me up and saved me.”

...Pastor Criswell

From sinking sand He lifted me,
With tender hand He lifted me,
From shades of night to plains of light,
O praise His name, He lifted me!
[Charles H. Gabriel, 1905]

"Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters."    Ps 69:14
