Well guys, it's been quite a day!
The Lord has been working today and it has been SO COOL to be a part of it!
You want me to tell you about it?
Okay, great!
(I was going to anyway...BOOM)
Well, this morning whilst I was reading and praying and just spending some time with my Lord, I felt Him telling me that we were going to get the chance to share our faith today.
The thought of that gave me mixed emotions.
On the one hand it made me really excited!
On the other it made me a touch nervous.
But I just tried to keep my focus on the Lord and He is never going to give me a task that I can't accomplish through Him.
The Lord doesn't call the equipped, He equips the called.
(Thanks MomBond!)
So I just prayed that the Lord would use me in that opportunity and that His glory would shine through in the end, and then I tried to keep my eyes peeled for that encounter.
So we went to Llanberis today, which is a town at the base of Snowdon, the highest peak in Wales.
(its absolutely GORGEOUS)
We went to this cafe, Pete's Eats, and we met a man there.
He spotted Tara's camera and started chatting with her about photography and stuff and eventually that led to us getting to interview him!
His name is Richard.
He's a photographer.
(on the side)
He works in construction.
So we started talking with him, just the typical interview questions.
But then they started to get a little meatier.
And I decided to just go for it and dig a little deeper than we normally go.
I just asked "well, what do you believe?"
and he told us.
Then he asked me "well, what do you believe?"
And I was just like....there it is.
We ended up talking to him for close to two hours!
It was awesome!
He has a lot of different opinions about a lot of different things.
He was very nice about it but he was also very insistent that we were wrong.
But you know that's okay.
We can't do anything to change his heart.
But the Lord can!
And I believe that he's going to!
So my prayer for Richard is that the Lord would reveal Himself.
That He would show that He is true and He is real.
That He would get Richard's attention.
Any way necessary.
It has been absolutely INCREDIBLE watching the Lord work since I've been here!
I can't wait to see what He has in store for my last 10 days here!
Livin' Da Life!
look at you! All that practice paid off!
ReplyDeleteyour story gave me cold chills, know the Lord is at work. Thanks for my beautiful postcard, since I had gone to Kentucky I cannot say how long it took to get here but not more than 7 days and could have been here much sooner. The pictures are incredible so once again I get to visit via Phoebe. Thanks
