Personal Story, Part II -- A BLESSED ANSWER...
Many of you read my post a few days back regarding my friend who was killed in an auto accident. I have been very burdened since I failed to witness to her upon seeing her for the first time in many years. My prayer that someone else had been placed in my shoes and took that opportunity to witness to her WAS ANSWERED!
I learned that my friend was approached by a local pastor 2 weeks before her death and that she dedicated her life to Christ! I was shocked and amazed when I learned this...not to mentioned relieved. She gave her heart to Jesus and was baptized just 2 weeks before she was killed.
God does move! Our God is an AWESOME GOD!!! I am so thankful that someone was obedient to the spirit, and that they did exactly what God wanted them to do! My friend -- SHE MADE IT TO HEAVEN ;)
My lesson from this situation is to be certain that I am sensitive to the spirit. I have also learned that God places us in certain situations for a reason. We are charged with sharing our faith...and this might be a life and death conversation for someone. Life is precious and it is a gift that can dissipate in only a moment. However, we have the option of choosing eternal life; and again, the responsibility to share that option with others.
Praise God! My friend was saved! Pray for her children and family...but at least they (and now, I) know that she was okay to go.
Godspeed...BR
