Morning Dear Friends,
Well to continue the story with Randy.....In the time he would stay with us at the motel I started to share the gospel according to the scriptures and not how the world sees it. No, unfortunately not everyone will go to heaven....There is very specific instructions from God how we can spend eternity with him.
Randy was on the road a lot and so I had found small NKJV pocket Bibles that I would give to people and so I did that with Randy and as he left I told him that I would be praying for him and his family.
The next time he came we had a visit and then I had to leave to go shopping and when I walked back into the motel there was a brightness shining in our living room (which was just off the office)
I walked in to find my hubby and Randy there, and my hubby was leading him in a prayer for salvation....SO what do I do instead of immediately rejoicing...I think "that is not fair I I I I was the one who talked with him...see how easy the devil wants to sneak in and cause your pride to surface. After I received a chastisement from the Lord I hugged Randy (and he was one big man) and rejoiced with him.
It was interesting to find out later that men he had been working with Randy were believers and they to had planted the seeds along the way as well.
I have come to the place in my life where I know we all are a part of a plan for people's lives and ministering to them and bringing them into the fold...but we MUST listen to the leading of the Holy Spirit...even if in our flesh we feel we would look foolish...
I know personally that I am hopeful that while I am still alive to see some fruit but I also know that this may not happen in my family until I am gone.
God IS good and He DOES hear the prayer of the faithful...
In running the motel we had several staff and I really tried to be a faithful servant and speak truth and be a good PR rep. for the Almighty but BOY did Iblow it with Loretta my head housekeeper...
to be continued on the next blog...
Love and blessings to you all today..
