wow God is so good. Today was the first day of our campus cycle and our team went off to the Universidad Technologica De Panama (UTP). We arrived around 9ish and had a bit of orientation around the area just to get to know the campus grounds a little better and were off to do sharing! by the end of the day...
3 people came to Christ today!
isnt that just so awesome? :) God is amazing...and i actually got to witness 1 of those 3 people come to Christ, my first time ever! I was with Raquel my team leader and Darren and we had talked to 2 people before that but werent able to present the gospels with them...then we went into this new building in the university and in this cafeteria was this guy Abel. so we talked to him and he's this really laid back guy but he was really receptive to the things we were saying :) he was asking us questions and stuff and we went through the 4 Spiritual Laws with him and when we got to the sinners prayer, he said he'll pray it with us! i was so happy when he said that! then we went on to get to know him a little better and planned a follow up session for next week :) another soul won into the kingdom of heaven!!! i can hardly wait to see how God will nurture this seed in him :):):)
then the other 2 people i didnt really hear much details about but there were also 2 other people with whom we shared with and we did the solarium with them. when it got to the question about picking a picture that would represent the spiritual life that they wanted to have, one of them picked a picture of this girl kinda running after this guy and she was like, i feel like i have to chase after God all the time and we were like, wow she's definitely searching! but she didnt have time after we finished the solarium so we scheduled for a time next week to continue so we can share the gospel with her :) then this other person picked a picture of a beer bottle and he was like, i'm really thirsty to get to know Christ! and we were really excited about it! it totally reminded us about the Samaritan woman that Jesus was talking to about how He's the living water and whoever drinks from Him will never thirst again! anyways he didnt have enough time either coz he had class so we scheduled a follow up as well :)
yeah its just so amazing how open the people here are to the gospel and they're really searching for Him...and God just brings us to them! His plan is truly so perfect and its like our director said, God is painting this wonderful picture and all He needs is the brushes and thats what we are, as long as we abide to His will and not want to go our own way, He'll use us to paint a beautiful picture here in Panama :)

Amen. Praying for you, Eden!
ReplyDeleteWOW! It's hard to imagine your conversation with Abel, even though you gave such a detailed description. I am praying for you, Eden; keep relying on God and I'm sure you'll have many more extraordinary stories to tell.-Lucy
