YOU ME

I recieved a phone call from a local Okinawa woman last week. Her name is Yume - "just like you and me she said". She just wanted to talk about Jesus. So I sat and talked with her. She calls phone numbers to talk about Jesus and share what He has done for us. It has been great talking with her. She said that she just calls numbers in order from 1-??? and talks to whoever will listen. We read scriputres together and share with each other about Jesus and His promises.

It has been really wonderful. She is very kind and is knowledgeable in the Word. It is a strange thing to encourage someone from another country and share since we are sisters in Christ but have never met. What a bold witness for Christ she is. What an example of sharing the gospel. She will call me again next week and we will talk about God's promises. Today we read

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14.
12 And further, my son, be admonished by these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the flesh. 13 Let us hear the
conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments,
For this is man’s all. 14 For God will bring every work into judgment,
Including every secret thing,Whether good or evil.

What a neat thing to read and discuss God's word although she is a stranger in this world she is not a stranger in the body of Christ..
