A Chance To Share
Two 12 packs of water in the freezer overnight... loaded up and on the road to street ministry... First stop the tire shop 4 bottles and 2 prayers later... off to the next stop the backside of the rail yard a camp that changes regularly 7 bottles and we had church... an elder woman sings "To God be the Glory"...gave out 2 Bibles in large zip lock bags.. 1 asked the Lord into her heart... we gathered in a circle held hands and asked of prayers answered.. off to find someone... as I pass by Mrs. Ella's home I saw no one there... Mrs. Ella has been a regular stop for the last 3 years... at first only a bottle was allowed to be left by her step... but lately she would be waiting for me... she so enjoys sharing her Jesus stories with me... I stopped and looked front and back no Ella... the man across the street waved I took him a bottle... I asked him about Ella... He reported that Mrs. Ella had passed away last week.. she had wandered away and was found behind the church...
A sense of loss came over me...
I got into the van and took a drink of water... this time is for prayer...
Father thank you for the bottles of water that opened the friendship and gave Mrs. Ella a chance to share her Jesus stories with me... Amen
This wasn't a loss but a gain one sees the reward and the other sees the bottle of cold water... and yet another chance to share...
