That’s the only piece of soap she had in her house!
I recently found the home of the woman who helped us with a piece of soap which we used to seal the leaking fuel of our car tank when it was damaged during the violence which took place on 10th and 11th September 09 in Kampala City where much property and lives were lost.
I reached her house around 5.30pm and found her breastfeeding her young child and the husband washing clothes. They live in one small room near the main road to our area of residence.
I identified myself as the man who came to their house requesting a piece of soap to help seal our fuel tank. The woman was able to identify me and was overjoyed to see me back and safe.
She narrated to me that when I came she felt a great conviction to help me, even though that was only piece of soap she had in her life but could not resist giving it away! I thanked her and got the family contact and made a contribution to their family and prayed a prayer of blessing to the family.
Like the 10 healed of leprosy… Jesus asked: “were not 10 cleansed? Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” Luke 17:17
We thank God how he positions people in such time of need. Much as that piece of soap is less than a dollar in terms of price. To us was worth more than a million dollars.
We thank also Marsha our friend in Virginia who I had sent an email before I left office that I was going to the city but there is violence and she kept us in prayer with Psalm 91. God heard her prayers and all of you who kept us in prayer.
Glory and honour to God.
