Tough nut?
Well, no matter how tough one is, no matter how lost sumone is in sin, he or she is never too hard a nut for the love of God to crack!
I read wif interest this news article today - Taiwan's gangster-turned-preacher.
An expert in martial arts and boxing, a bully when young, a gangster when older, a criminal – kidnapping, robbery, even murder! But things changed when a girl started praying for him – the sister of a fellow gangster. Then his life was turned upside down and he was touched by Christ’s love.
Now, married to that same girl, he is a reformed person, a man bent on spreading the gospel, the good news of the great love which set him free and bought him salvation.
No wonder they want to make a movie of his life story! After all, the creator of the universe is oso the author of his life story!
Remember, when things seem to be hopeless (like being 3-0 down in a Champions League Cup Finals!!), there is always still hope.
"It's never too late to be changed," he (the ganster-turned- preacher) said with a smile. "Everyone can be changed. It's never too late."

p/s - I wonder who they'll get to act as him. Nic Tse? Edison Chen? Prolly Anthony Wong as the older version of him. And if they have the money, Why not get the best - Tony Leung?Luke 1v37
