Pursuing Love

I've been thinking lately about an opportunity God gave me the other day to share Christ. I was at work and it was a busy night, lots to set for the next day. Anyways I finished up at the Delta and was on my way to the Harbour Towers and as I left I saw this man leaning up against a tree. As I passed him he began to yell at me from about 5 feet away it was rather humourous. He definitely had been drinking, his breath wreaked of alcohol, but usually I let them speak and see if I can decipher what it is they are trying to say.

This man was in some very deep and sorrowful pain, shown quite vividly through his eyes, and I felt God's love resting upon him. I ended up talking with him for about an hour, talking about God's love for him and God's plan and I could see that he was being encouraged. He even said to me that he knew God was chasing him but he was really confused and scared because he was an "atheist."

He gave me his e-mail, and left and I continued on to work praying all the way there and a lot of the way home. But God was there with him and I know that there was a seed planted that's going to produce fruit in him so if there is anyone who would also like to pray for him, his name is Dana, and I'll leave it at that!

God is Good!
