A divine appointment

Yesterday as Joshua, Linda, and I were handing out invitations in one neighborhood, one man at an apartment asked us what religion we were. We told him we were evangelical, and that Gary and Linda work with the Hispanic chapel at Dublin Baptist Church. He said okay and took the paper. I didn't think he would come. We just never know what God will do, right?

He did come today, with his cousin and her baby and another child, who attended the Bible club. He and the cousin and baby sat on the sidelines. At one point I approached them to welcome him and greet him, since I'd met him yesterday. He asked again about our "religion," and I started talking to him about having a relationship with God, and the truth of the Bible, and he asked if I had a Bible, and if he could see it. We had several Spanish Bibles to give away there, so I brought him one and asked if he knew he'd go to heaven. He told me he thought if he was a bad person he wouldn't, but he wasn't sure. I asked him to read 1 John 5:13 and Ephesians 2:8-9, and then I highlighted them, showed him where the gospel of John was, and gave him the Bible and an invitation to the Hispanic chapel.

Pray for Gerardo, that the seed will fall on fertile soil!
