What I've read

Saturday I finished the biography "George Muller: The Guardian of Bristol's Orphans" by Janet & Geoff Benge. Did you know that at first he was a "common thief"? His first wife was 8 years older then him and his second wife was 21 years younger! He had a daughter and a son (his son died at 15 months) Their daughter (Lydia) was 1 year older then her brother (Elijah). Lydia died at the age of 57. And did you know that George started 4 Orphan houses and then had to... move them ALL to a new Orphan house! Then he started 4 more Orphan homes! His second wife died when they had been married 23 years. He himself died when he was 92 years old. George Muller never asked for ANYTHING AT ALL to take care of all of those orphans!
