Story of Sadhu Sundar Singh
The famous Sadhu Sundar Singh was in Keswick for half a year. I was told that the family which entertained him was quite
embarrassed. They prepared a bed for him, and the weather was
rather chilly. But he slept every night on the floor.
He was truly an Indian. I would hope, however, that we believers would learn to
sleep anywhere, whether it is on a bed or on the floor, because this is
Christianity. Some people have nothing within them. If they were tosleep on a bed, their Christianity would be gone! But let us be Christians whether we are to sleep on a bed, on the floor, or on the
ground. Do not emphasize ordinances by turning the glorious,
spiritual life into such things.
