Clerk Shares Her Faith and Prays with Robber. This is Faith Lived Out.
Did you see this? I don't even want to say what fully happens...but MY JAW FLIPPING DROPPED several times during this report.
As a former cop...I would have busted a cap in someone pointing a gun at me...BUT THIS IS TRUE FAITH IN ACTION!
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." [john 13.34-35.niv]
Lesson here in advance: YOU MAY NEVER KNOW WHAT FRUIT YOU ARE BEARING...SO KEEP CASTING SEED!
No matter if you have started a campus or just a conversation with someone at work...your SEED matters, and rarely will you get an e-mail or letter about it. But one day...you will receive your inheritance for your faithfulness.
It is amazing to get a glimpse of this while on earth. This person who sent this to me lives out of state, which makes it even more amazing to me:

Hey Charles... get this!
___________, my 15 yr old niece is going through "stuff" as only 15 yrs olds can. She's starting to show interest in spiritual things and asked her mom if they could find a church.
Yep. And they went yesterday...to New Hope in Wooster. ;)
_________ loved it and __________ [her Mom] said she'll take her every Sunday she wants to go.
Pray with me, wouldja'? This could be the start of some real hope that's been missing for a long time: a first for my niece and renewal for my sis.
Your efforts are bearing fruit...even after you've gone. How cool is that?
Just a reminder that what you're doing matters. Thanks for bringin' it home. :)
