Emphasis Preaching Journal

The shape of a grasshopper is carved in the marble of an Exchange Building in London. Years before a woman walked along a path in the woods of northern England. She abandoned a baby, putting it under a shrub. Later that same day, a boy came along the path. Near the place where the baby was, this boy saw an unusually big grasshopper. As he tried to catch the grasshopper, it jumped across the path. The boy chased it. He dropped to his knees and cupped his hands to capture it. Then he saw and heard the abandoned baby. He took the baby home to his parents.
