One day a man and his little brother were out fishing.\u00a0 They caught so many fish that their boat was completely full. Then, an enourmas shark came circling their boat, so they thought “we better give it all of our fish so it will be full and not want to eat us.” \u00a0They threw it all the fish in their boat, but the great shark ate all the fish and continued to circle them.\u00a0 So the little brother said to the big brother, \u201cYou have to kill me and throw by body to the big shark or we will both die. \u201c The big brother said, \u201cNo way, I could never throw you to the shark to be eaten.\u201d But the little brother kept insisting, \u00a0so the big brother took out his bush knife and cut off is brothers head and layed it in the boat and threw his body to the great shark.\u00a0 The shark devoured him and was not hungry anymore and swam away. When the big brother came to the shore he cried and whaled over what had happened to his brother, and he barried his brother’s head in the sand.\u00a0 Then he went and told all of his family what had happened. \u00a0Several weeks later he went to play with his children down by the shore again and he saw something growing up from the ground.\u00a0 He thought, \u201cWhat in the world is that.\u201d\u00a0 Then he remembered…it was where he had buried his brother’s head.\u00a0 It was a small tree and as it grew, large round fruit grew from it.\u00a0 This is how the coconut came into existence.<\/p>\n

Many people in Papua New Guniea are so blinded by the lies of Satan and so was my friend Katy before she heard “God\u2019s Talk” as she calls it!\u00a0 She told me this story the other day and said this is what she used to believe before she placed her faith in Christ.\u00a0 Her grandparents told her this story and she believed it to be true.\u00a0 We have many other friends here who are steeped in these same lies.\u00a0 Please be praying for us as we build relationships with them and learn their language so that we can be the light in the Darkness.<\/p>\n
