Amazing Story

There was a professor there who was deeply committed to atheism. His primary goal of one required class was to spand the entire semester to prove that God couldn't exist. His students were always afraind to argue with him because of his impeccable logic.

Sure, some had argued in his class at times, but no one had ever gone agianst him because of his reputation. At the end of the semester on the last day, he would say to his 300 students .

"If there is anyone who still believes in Jesus, stand up!"
In twenty years, no one has ever stood up! They knew what he was going to do next. He would say.

"Because anyone who believes in God, Is a fool! If god is real, he would stop the chalk from falling on to the floor and breaking. A simple task to prove that God is real and yet he still can't do it.
"
And every year he would drop the chalk onto the tile of the classroom and it would shatter into 100 peices. All the students would just stop, and stare. Most of the students thpught that God couldn't exist.

Certainly, a number of christians had gone through the class, but they were all to afraid to stand up.

Well, a few years ago there was a freshmen who happened to enroll. He was a christian and had heard the stories of the profressor. He was required to take the class for his majoe, and he was afraid. But for three months of that semester, he prayed every morning that he would have the courage to stand up to his professor no matter what he, or his classmates, thought. That nothing they said would shatter his faith....he hoped.

Finally, that day came and the professor said "if there is anyone who believes in God, stand up!"
The professor and his 300 classmates looked up at him, shocked, when he stood up in the back of the classroom. The professor shouted "You FOOL!!! if God is real, he will stop this chalk from breaking when it hits the floor.
"
The professor dropped the chalk but, as he did it slipped through his fingers, off his shirt cuff, onto the pleat of his pants, down his leg and onto his shoe. As it hit the ground, it rolled away, unbroken. The professor's jaw dropped as he stared at the unbroken chalk. He looked up at the young man, and then ran out of the lecture hall.

The young man who sttod up, proceeded to the front og the class and shared hid faith of Jesus for the next half hour. 300 students stayed as he talked about the love of Jesus and the power that Jesus gives him.

You Have Two Choices
1.) Pretend you never read this.

2.) Pass this on to you Christian or non-Christian friends, giving them encouragement they need everyday.

If you chose #2, you chose to STAND UP!!!
