A..GIANT...Opportunity to share the Gospel

Beloved:

Today, is the day I set aside to witness at the transit mall, and boy, did I get a great blessing! Little did I know... A Giants game was today in San Francisco! (sad that a giants fan wouldn't know that!) people were getting on the train, heading to the city and it sure was a crowd. I handed out alot of tracts and had a great time talking to folks, and dodging the transit police. I'm sure that if they were concerned about me they would let me know! I do have to admit, I had a great opening to open air to about 100 people waiting for the train, but I didn't! I took my focus off of Jesus and let fear and excuses,keep me from sharing the Greatest Truth. One thing I learned though... You have to walk when the Lord gives you the open door! The train came and ....off they went. I was left on an open, virtually empty platform with my heart so very convicted! Well I was not going to leave that place without open air preaching! I walked over to the center of the Bus waiting area, where I usually OA and proceeded to preach the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! After I was done... I thanked the 8 or 10 pigeons and 2 sparrows that were my audience! It reminded me of the story of the street preacher that faithfully preached each time, even though no one seemed to hear, yet, there was a lady who was sick and in bed and was ministered to by this faithful servant of Gods Word, and the street preacher didn't even know! Never forget that God's Word NEVER returns void..NEVER!
Faithfully preach the word,witness and hand out tracts..... THE POWER IS IN GODS WORD,NOT IN OUR PRESENTATION!

Until the nets are full!
