While doing street evangelism I was ashamed and in doubt at the beginning but now I can just say – again - God is great. He can speak to people in so many different ways, either through a flyer, our testimony on the pavement, or the "Good News" about His death and resurrection that can be heard by many people who are just passing by.
One Friday night there was another outreach evening outside a railway station where we usually go. Adam (it´s not his real name) - a 25-year old man - was one of many people who were passing by, and he also got a flyer. I remember giving a flyer to a guy wearing a blue t-shirt. The same guy wearing the same t-shirt was standing there a few minutes later holding the flyer in his hand... but then he disappeared. I followed him, touched his arm and asked if he wanted to speak to someone... He was from Poland so we started talking to each other in Polish. It was nice. He said he had been looking for a church and needed a prayer. He has had a very hard life and wanted to commit a suicide a few times. He had come to England so that he could change something but he wasn’t able to do that on his own. Afterwards I was talking to him with another co-worker, we were trying to explain him who Jesus was and what He had done for him. Then all three of us knelled down and prayed. He started crying, and received Christ while asking the Lord for forgiveness. My friends, I saw a change in Adam’s face after these few moments. He was very thankful to us, but we know we need to praise the Lord. That was HIM we could see at work. He is such a wonderful God! Adam came to an evening service a few times after that.
He still needs love, care and prayers. You can pray that God would strengthen him in a practical daily life. Thank you!
