Billy Graham's Call 2/22 Thursday Thougths

Was God calling him to full-time preaching?...

"I used all kinds of rationalizations to convince God to let me do something else," he wrote.  [But] the inner urge would not subside.  Finally, one night, he got down on his knees at the edge of one of the greens.  He prostrated himself on the dewy turf.  "Oh God," he sobbed.  "If you want me to serve you, I will."

The moonlight , the moss, the breeze, the golf course -- all his surroundings stayed the same.  There  was no voice from above.  But in his spirit, Billy knew he had been called to the ministry. 

And he knew his answer was yes.
