Still Learning

After having a beautiful opportunity to share Jesus with an older man, expressing why we came and what Jesus means to me in my life;  I was sure I had been cured of my ugly attitude and could now move forward in the process, but God had to stop me in my tracks again.

First prejudice, non believers helping to sift through valuable items. I was very suspicious of them, certain they were pocketing items. I was also angry that Samaritans Purse would allow them to wear their Samaritans Purse logo tee shirts and work along side us Christians! They had to gain special permission because they refused to sign the "statement of faith" paperwork. Their boss routinely has them take a day off with pay, in order to do community service. However, it was easy to see that God was not surprised, in fact, it was in His plans!

 

Steve took time during lunch to share with them about Jesus, and they "hung" on to every word. Then, Steve said to me, "these guys really worked hard today, we really needed their help!" Ouch!

Man, did I need to bite my lip and ask for forgiveness!
