Street Preaching

I was out one Saturday giving the Gospel to anyone who would listen when I happened on a town hall meeting. Having being previously convicted by God to preach in the open air, and attracted to the possibility of having a microphone in my hand I stopped to find out what was happening. I discovered that after the main speakers were done, the microphone would be opened to anyone who had something to say. PRAISE GOD! He provided an awesome platform for my first venture in street preaching, wouldn't you agree?

Missed Opportunities

*WARNING*  THIS IS NOT A PRAISE

Just over a year ago I had the opportunity to witness to a man while on a business trip with him.  I had greatly desired this opportunity because he was battling lung cancer for the second time, and continuing to smoke, getting increasingly worse.  He didn't receive salvation at that time, but sent me an email a few days later that he would like to talk to me about "the gift" at some point in the future.

Months later his health got worse and he could no longer work in any capacity.  I tried to contact him, but only left a message.  A few weeks ago I began to think about him again, and that I should call him, but took no action.  Today I found out that he died three days ago.

I believe God put him on my mind because he wanted me to call him.  Maybe God just wanted me to hear from his mouth that he had gotten saved.  Maybe I was to be one final opportunity.  God knows.  I've missed that opportunity. 

Enough said.

Pressing on,

Mark Hebert
Ps. 16:11
Praise God!
