Things have been busy since the last update with Jail and Street ministry. Also, Jodi and I lead a group of youth, from our Church, to a local neighborhood to go door to door to minister Jesus and invite people to Church.
Last Wednesday night Jodi and I were at South Bend Juvenile and at the end of the meeting one of the young men stayed after to talk to us privately. He opened us with us confessing some evil things he was involved with. The young man was visibly broken and weeping as the weight of these sins were so heavy on him, he confessed to God and he asked for forgiveness. We shared God’s love, mercy and forgiveness and also that God will give him the ability to totally abandon that life style. –Without God ability in us we would all be still captive in our sins. Praise God for His ability in us!!This last Friday night Kevin Privett and myself went out to downtown Elkhart and had an awesome “God-Appointment” with a man fishing. What was interesting about the conversation with guy is that he was sharing how God has been reaching out to him. The man’s name was Rich and he shared how last week a complete stranger ran up to him in a parking lot and said to him how God told him to share the Gospel with him…and Richard shared how he constantly thinks of death and wonders where he will go after he dies.
Kevin and I shared with Richard for a good period of time, but Richard was not ready to surrender his life to Jesus. – I am sometimes very perplexed how people can realize that God is reaching out to them and sending individuals across their path sharing salvation and hope after death through Jesus Christ and they still reject and refuse to yield their lives to Him. I have peace knowing that Richard heard the truth and I will continue to pray for him.
