A Tale Of True Love

When the hunters returned to camp that evening, they chatted excitedly about the two elk they had taken, until they saw the change in Braxton and learned about his conversion.

  That night there was great joy in the hearts of all the men at camp, apart from Fred.

  He was happy too, because everyone else was happy, but he didn’t understand this God thing and it made him uneasy.

  As he reclined in his chair, he listened to the men share their stories about finding God, observed the change in Braxton - the man he had known all his life, expressing himself with a softer countenance, a kinder and happier face - he still couldn’t believe the change in the man. It almost scared him, the new Braxton.

  They decided to stay the whole week and by the end, the men all had their tags filled, except Tom and Braxton.

  Yet that didn’t matter. It had been such a wonderful experience. One beyond what anyone could have imagined or hoped for.

  Ed planned on sharing his meat with Tom’s family, while Braxton had obtained a gift far greater and more precious than the elk he had sought.

  The men returned brothers, in the true sense of the word, except for Fred. And there would always be hope for him if he chose to seek the miracle that had taken place in God’s country, for himself.
