God has been blessing our ministry here at Cromwell College. We’ve been hanging out spending quality time meeting and eating with guys in the dining hall. It has been natural for us to share the gospel and spiritual things openly with a guy named Chris. We shared the depths of our sin that Christ rescued us from a lot this week. We explained the gospel and our testimonies in a way where he could understand what coming to Christ is all about. He began responding with confession of sin and remorse for it. We could see God removing the blinders from his eyes to see his need for purpose and satisfaction in Jesus. He seemed to be overwhelmed and had a repentant heart but was scared to become a Christian. He had several key questions that we tried to shed some light on. We kept going back to the gospel and helping him see what following Jesus is all about. At the end of the long conversation, he humbly asked if we could pray. So, we laid hands on him and prayed for God to come to his rescue and save him. We are planning on starting a bible study with him so please be praying for us and him. We are also trying to ease into spiritual talk with other friends we’ve made, so please keep Tigger, Echo, and Kenneth specifically in your prayers.
That is just so great to hear about how God is using you to bring the light of Christ into Chris' life as well as all the others. I will pray for your strength to follow God's lead, for your lights to shine evermore brightly and for continued opportunities to share with Tigger, Echo and Kenneth. Cyndi Sublett
