Hello everyone,
As a testimony, God has brought a couple of guys across my path. I believe this is no accident. God has made it very clear that he wants me to stay connected with these two men so that I can encourage them to draw closer to him.
The first one is a co-worker. He shared with me this past weekend that he started to go to church, and he showed up to a Bible study this past week. He said that my example and demonstration of faith encouraged him to pursue this for himself. He's tired of living his old life. Pretty cool, eh? He's an emotional anorexic like myself and we had a great conversation about how love is still important to embrace even though it can be hard to feel.
The other guy I met yesterday at his son's birthday. Technically, it's his fiance's son. They have been putting off their wedding for at least 3 years. I was able to give them both some encouragement to follow through with their plans. They both appear to have a root of faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ. But my wife was able to discern that this couple felt uneasy about going to church because they are living together, but haven't married yet. Pray that they'll find a way to tie the knot so that their covenant makes a good lasting impression on the four kids in their life.
I will put both of these guys on my outreach call rotation. Pray that both of them will answer their phone when I call. Pray that the Lord lays on each of their hearts to continue to grow in Christ. Pray that the Lord will grant me wisdom as I share my experience with them.
Thank you.
