When I first became a Christian I talk about this a lot more than I do now.
Tonight as my family was at Mc Donald’s we got into a conversation with a
lady that just got out of jail. The women shared her worries and concerns
about losing her car, worried about her job, and what she was going to tell
her 14 year old daughter about being in jail. So T and I prayed for her in
Mc Donald’s. I was a little surprised how much it touched the lady. She
began to cry, and right after we prayed for her she began talking about
wanting to get baptized. God must have just touched her heart. I reassured
her that God has been with her these past days she was in jail. She asked
for my contact info, because she was coming back to our town for a court
appearance in July.
I need to slow down more often and open my eyes to those people hurting that
need ministry. That is what this past weeks sermon was all about, slowing
down and seeing people and their needs, and then meeting those needs or
pointing them to the God who can supply their every need.

We all need to open our eyes to the hurting people around us. They are all around us everyday.

We don’t witness like this near enough. Yes, that was a Divine appointment. God uses us where we are for His purposes. No matter the result, being obedient to the urging of the Spirit is what is expected, and rewarded!
