A schoolteacher reported: - All The Good Seed Daily Devotionals for 2026

For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Matthew 7:8

A schoolteacher reported:
"During my teacher training, I struck up a friendship with another student teacher. She was religious and, like myself, she came originally from North Africa. She spoke a lot about God, which often caused heated debates, and constantly explained to me why she had become a Christian. That bewildered me.
For a Muslim becoming a Christian means giving up everything. History, culture and faith are closely bound together for us. My friend had betrayed her own identity and her God.
For a long time I considered her lost. On my husband's advice, however, I invited her to visit us, so that I could help her. That caused more inflamed discussions. But how was I to criticise a religion that I did not know? I decided to read the Bible and became engrossed in the gospels. Until then Jesus had been merely a prophet among many for me. Yet He suddenly began to fascinate me! Reading the New Testament, I had some difficulties, yet, astonishingly, I easily understood the connection.
I got into a conflict. Seeking truth in a faith was strictly forbidden outside my own religion. The crisis was so severe that I could not sleep and had no appetite - until the night when I asked God in a prayer "Where are you to be found? In the Koran or in the Bible? Do tell me!"
Then the scales fell from my eyes. Since I was prepared to listen to the living God, He gave me assurance. That night I found inner peace and became happy: Jesus was the way!"
