The other day it was pouring rain.
It was dark and we were walking along a busy street.
As we were walking we came across this man
hooded, head down, earphones in, not interested.
We smiled at him and offered him a card.
He was kind of confused why we were handing him a card
(two young sister missionaries, 9 pm, raining, side of the road.)
Soon we were talking and he told us his story.
Son of a preacher.
Then he decided to rebel big time.
Years went by.
He didn't think God cared enough for him to want to change.
Got himself into a sticky situation.
He knew things were bad but he didn't care.
Then it happened
As fast as lightning!
He knew things were bad but he didn't care.
Then it happened
As fast as lightning!
Had an undeniable experience where he Knew it was God who helped him out.
He was in shock
God did care.
His story was the light two soggy sisters needed on a cold night.
God does care.
Alma 7:14
"Now I say unto you that ye must repent, and be born again; for the Spirit saith if ye are not born again ye cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven; therefore come and be baptized unto repentance, that ye may be washed from your sins, that ye may have faith on the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sins of the world, who is mighty to save and to cleanse from all unrighteousness."
