Step off for a while - French Soldier
A French soldier– They got a bunch of soldiers in from the army, and they had this amnesia, it's from shock on the battle. And they had a program. And they called up, and let people who had missing loved ones to call, and see if they could identify these boys. No hope for them, maybe one or two out of it caught it. And then they took the rest of them; they was going to put them in a sanitarium, where they'd have to stay the rest of their life. They was going up the hillside, train pulling, and they stopped at a station, let the boys get out and stretch their legs. And the guards got out on the hill to watch them, because with amnesia, why, they had to watch them.
So they watched one young fellow there. He got out and begin to look around at that water tank, looked all around over the hill. He rubbed his face, and studied, and he looked again; he seen that water tank. He looked all around at the station, and he started walking.
Instead of the guard stopping him, he followed him. He went up over the hill, down a little path, turned to the right, went up over another little hill and come to a little log cabin. He looked. Coming out on a porch, an old man with a cane in his hand come out, throwed his arms around him, said, "My son, I knowed you would return. They told me you were dead, but I knowed you would return." And the boy come to himself. His amnesia left him. He could identify who he was. He knowed that was his father.
Oh, soldier of the cross that's been shocked with so much training, so many shocks of denomination, and creed, and things of the world, why don't you just step off for a few minutes, and go looking around at the Bible? Might wander around, and you might find yourself identified here in the Word as a believer. One of these days, you might not know Him. You may come to yourself, like the prodigal son did, and find yourself. You might find your identification in the words of God."
