This is a true story.........

William Coper was a man that lived in the middle 1700's. At 6 years old, he watched his mother pass away. His dad (and his family) couldn't take care of him, so he sent him to a boarding school. He was the youngest in the family and he was bullied a lot. Later on in life he had two failed relationships. He tried an overdose of opium. He tried to commit suicide. He tried to fall on a knife and the knife broke just as he fell on it. Every place he tried to commit suicide, something would happen to where it wouldn't happen. As a matter of fact, one foggy night he tried to find a lake to throw himself into. The fog was so great he couldn't find the lake. His life continued to spiral downward until his mental illness took over his life, and he found himself at the lowest point in a mental institution. That's where God got a hold of William. It happened that a relative came one day to share with William the love of Jesus from Romans 3:25. And God opened his eyes to see how much God lived him. And he gave his heart to the Lord. There was so much joy in his life, God changed him radically. And before he even left the mental institution he penned these words: "I hear the Saviour say, by truth indeed is small. Child of weekness..........for Jesus paid it all." The precious blood of Jesus cleansed him and set him free.
