We were sitting in bible school class and I saw one guy sitting there. I heard the words “He is overworked and doesn’t get out enough” with the added feeling that his heart was in need of fellowship and love. My shallow faith stumbled and didn’t think it was God, so as we do, I needed that other sign… you know how that goes… I said to God “If this is You… I will leave this and not react at all. If this is You… the words must come out of his mouth”, I left it there. Then after class as we were greeting people we walked past a friend, only to stop for a moment, and here this guy was standing. He asked me about ordinary life related things, I had forgotten what I had prayed hours earlier, and then his turn came to tell me what was going on with him and out of his mouth the words flowed that he was overworked and just wanted to chill a bit. Needless to say, my memory was very active again, and I invited the guy to play rugby with us and just shared with him what I felt he needed to hear.
I didn’t tell him about any of this, but it is still amazing to see how God uses us to be there for one another, maybe it didn’t even mean that much to him, I don’t know, but the whole thing meant a lot to me. I prayed for him and that is where I left it. God revealed, I was obedient (hehe, second time around) and reacted, and now I leave it with God, in faith.
