I had one of those rare opportunities on Friday, the opportunity to tie in several of the concepts we have been learning about in Bible time with a little gospel illustration that I learned ever so long ago. The title was “Jesus Dies on the Cross.” The Spirit was present so sweetly, and I was able to share very naturally in the context of their questions that we are separated from God so completely that only the cross of Christ can bridge the chasm. After they left, I realized that during the same Bible time with a class that is a bit ahead, there was no such prompting, no questions that made sharing the illustration apropos. God works so personally and individually not only from person to person, but from class to class.
Please pray for these dear ladies, bringing precious little toddlers with them, to “decide” to believe in Jesus!
p.s. This is “Sheri’s” class. Sheri continues to be open to the Bible and eager to learn. Please keep praying for her!
p.p.s Sheri’s story is contained in an earlier post. If I knew how to link to it, I would . . . .
