Hey Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Hope ya had a great day. Things went pretty well on campus today I had some good conversations. Nika came to Christ. She is african American and was standing at the entrance way of the SRC building waiting for a bus. Standing because for some reason they took all the benches out of the area. Not part of the master plan or someone wanted them somewhere else who knows. So I asked her if she would do a survey about God and she said she would while she kept one eye out for the Bus outside. I didn’t now how her ride would come at first so I just prayed it would be late enough for me to get through the gospel. I asked her what one thing was she would like to do b4 she died and she said, “Get closer to God.” I assume God heard her, knew this and sent me along guided by prayers. She thought she was going to heaven because she was a nice person. When the bus right b4 hers came she got nervous she would miss it from being distracted by what I was saying so I said let’s stand outside so we did and she prayed to receive Jesus. More than a Carpenter fit right in her clutch sized purse and I gave her a Bible Study to read. IN moments her Bus rolled up and I watched her get on.
I had a good conversation with a couple others, a Catholic guy Mason was close and I encouraged him. Mari [short for Marianna] had been an atheist since she was 10 when her parents divorced. I really felt for her and tried to extend some love her way. She took a copy of the student edition of The Case for Faith from me saying as she selected a book, ‘It’s shorter.” Which I hope means she’ll read it and God will speak to her through it. Had some other good conversations, thanks for your prayers. I feel blessed to have a ministry to do and really am grateful people are willing to pray so that it accomplishes His work in hearts.
In His Love,
Bob Bollow
