Another in the Series of Classic Short Stories by Christmas Carol Kauffman According to His Purpose and Other Short Stories Volume # 5 of the 5-book series Was it Edwin's lot to have nothing but misfortune and disappointment today? It seemed like an evil game in which fate was to be determined. What had he done to deserve such horrible reverses? His entire earnings of the past three months were in that stolen billfold. He had planned to stop at a good restaurant with Laura Lou on the way home. He had planned to treat her to the best. Only a few minutes before, he had testified to the jitney driver that he was going to believe-no matter what happened. Depressed, he walked slowly to a lawn chair beside the filling station and sat down to study. "You don't mind if I sit here a while do you, sir?" "I never allow loafers, but I guess you can rest a bit." Edwin put his face in his hands. "Dear God in heaven," he prayed silently, "in Jesus' name, help me to know what to do. I don't want to sin now by doubting Thy word. If it's not good for now, it's not what I claimed it to be. You know, dear Lord, that Romans 8:28 has been my motto and it's got to still be! I do believe it. I dare not doubt, even though the devil wants me to. God bless that mean fellow who stole my billfold. I am one-one of Thy called ones according to Thy mysterious purpose, so deal with me, dear Father in Heaven, according to Thy will!"
The third in the series of short stories by the beloved Mennonite author Christmas Carol Kauffman. This delightful collection of stories was originally published in the 1930's in the Youth's Christian Companion.This title joins the other five in the series: Comin Home Soon (Vol 1) and In the time of Lilacs (Vol 2). Before the Fall (Vol 4); According to His Purpose (Vol 5) After reading just one of her stories, the reader is captured by her simple yet powerful prosaic style. It seems as if Carol had the gift to craft words at the first passing... as they flowed from her mind to the pencil. Rarely did she edit or alter these stories but just wrote as the words came. It was as if the words came from elsewhere and she was but the earthbound conduit of heaven's dew distilling upon her fertile and innocent mind.
