Intrusion or an Invitation?

Thanks for being patient and waiting for me to publish new stuff. The summer is gone, fall is here, so it is a great time to celebrate and start blogging again. The Lord does amazing things all the time, and I am just thankful that He allows me to see it.

Last week I took the opportunity to tell our campus in Homestead that we held the power to encourage people. We have opportunities during the week to give hope to people. So I encouraged them to be looking out for those opportunities.

24 hours later…

Monday Morning…. I was in my office trying to organize my week and was ready to charge the week when I received a phone call from the front desk. I was told that there were two guest who needed to talk to me. In my mind I thought… I don’t have time for this! (THIS IS AN INTRUSION.)

But I welcomed the guests into my office. As I began to talk to them, they told me that they are Jews and that they believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that He was the Messiah. They also asked me what believing this meant to them.

WOW! That morning, those two individuals received Christ into their lives in my office.

Two lessons learned…

1. Christ looked at people in a way that I should always look at them. He looked at them as an invitation to minister, not as an intrusion in ministry.


2. God is so good at giving the test and then teaching me the lesson. Totally opposite of what happens in our natural world.
