We arrived at Church
on the last Sunday of our recent outreach to find a man in a florescent jacket
waiting outside to come in. I got to sit and have a chat with him, he was not a
Christian, and had lost his wife to cancer about 3 months earlier, she was a
Christian. He was walking from the Isle of White to Herne Bay and it was his
birthday on the Monday so wanted to come somewhere he knew he could be with
people and also to honour his wife’s memory.
As we talked he told
me that he was probably very close to becoming a Christian, inviting Jesus into
his life, but he had one question in scripture that was confusing him. The
question he had was why and what did Jesus write in the sand. So we talked
about it and I showed him a passage in Daniel where God writes on the wall of
the palace. After we had talked for about 15 minutes he said to me thank you, I
have no more questions.
At the end of the
service the church leader felt he should ask if anyone want to give their lives
to Jesus and The guy I had been talking with stood up and invited Jesus into
his life. The change in him was amazing; as he left he seemed to have a fresh
hope, he walked out of the door lighter. It was great to see God touch his life
in a really significant way, it really made my day to be able to talk with him
and be apart of his journey.
