A lady committed a crime and she was sent to
court. The punishment for the crime was life
imprisonment. She shed tears for help but to no
avail. When the case was called in court she
started weeping. Her husband, family and
friends who accompanied her started weeping
but there was no hope. But something
happened. Before the lady could stand in the
witness box a man
stood up and the court room was silent.
Everyone looked at Him. He was noble and
gentle. He stood in the witness box and
interceded on behalf of the woman. The case
was difficult, yet He used all His strength,
energy and resources to fight on behalf of the
woman. After a long legal battle between the
man and
the accusers, the lady was set free. The lady fell
before the man and asked 'WHO ARE YOU?' The
next day the lady deliberately committed
another crime and was sent to the same court.
As soon
as she entered the courtroom, she saw the man
who interceded for her the previous day on the
judgement seat. He was no longer a lawyer, but
a judge. With smiles on her face the lady said 'I
have come again' The man lifted his head and
said 'yesterday I was a lawyer, so I fought for
you, even when you were guilty. But today I am
a judge and my judgement must be fair.' With
tears
in the ladies eyes she asked for the second time
'WHO ARE YOU'
