Results of the Work – 11/6/14

Hey Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

Well, I hope you were blessed today walking by the Spirit.  I had a good day on campus.  I  had some good conversations and Phabian prayed with me to receive Christ.  He’s an African American guy; thin, good looking, kind of crazy hair though.  His head was shaved on the sides and his afro kind of came up in waves like Jimmy neutron boy genius.  He had just a slight mustache.  Phabian was sitting in some chairs overlooking the revolving exit doors by the bookstore and said he’d be willing to answer some questions, except that he really had no answers.  When I asked him what he might say to God to get into Heaven he said, “I honestly have no idea.”  He didn’t have any certainty about if he would get to Heaven and hadn’t been to church in a while.  When his parents moved and he started College he lost the habit.  He literally said almost nothing as I went through the Gospel except a nod or a smile.  But when I asked him if he would want to be forgiven based on what Jesus had done for him on the Cross he said he did and prayed to receive Christ.  He had a bible at home so I encouraged him to read it.  I gave him More Than A Carpenter but he “never read much,” he said.  I also gave him a Bible study and explained the Christian life by living by the Spirit.  He gave me his email to get a bible study from me once in a while.  I told him I would be praying for him and he thanked me a couple times and I said, “God bless you.”  And he said, “You too.”  It wouldn’t be enough to give me hope; short conversations hearing the Gospel, and a simple prayer.  But if the Holy Spirit enters you by genuine faith when you pray, my hope for you is in the Power of God not the faithfulness of man.

So thanks for your prayers for me today doing evangelism if you had a chance and for the ministry.  God is leading me on campus.

In Him,

Bob Bollow
