Kudu calling killer

This may not sound too spiritual, but my friend Chris is a killer. He can make you laugh, he can make you smile, and some of his hunting stories will flat out kill you with the way God works.

Now Chris is a hunter. And he also photographs big game hunts. He just sent me a picture of a huge spiral antlered kudu that he shot in Africa while he was over three football fields away (350 yards).

Here is the killer part of the story.

The brother went out there to photograph the whole deal for somebody else, but they told him to go ahead and shoot a kudu if he had the chance. Now the desire of any real African hunter in their right mind (Christian or heathen), is to kill a big kudu. God gave Chris the desire of his heart while he was out there serving others.

I could talk about God calling animals into Noah's ark and God feeding Elijah by the ravens and a lot of other stuff, but when I saw the picture of Chris with that kudu, I was reminded how God not only gives us the desires of our hearts, but He knows how to bring a target in our cross hairs when we are still a long way off.

Don't think for one minute that your desire is beyond God's ability. A day will come when you will hit the target dead on, and you will be smiling all the way to heaven.

Keep going out to the field and serving. You will have your day when you least expect it. Keep your powder dry, and happy hunting.
