God Just Loves People
No matter where you may plant yourself in a restaurant or store, the person next to you is loved by God. The difficult thing to do is to "break the ice" then hear from the Lord in the midst of everything and speak His word to them in a way that doesn't sound weird or spooky. Now, add to the mix the fact that where we live it is a second language, cross-cultural exchange almost every single time. Anyway, the first place we went last night had a lot of people there God loved, but it was difficult to communicate that because of the language barrier-- which is, at times, very frustrating. However, God redeemed even that time and the bad night we had last night at the last place we planted ourselves.
Tenacious B., DJ, and I all went to this one cafe and sat down next to some guys. DJ, who breaks ice an eskimo, gets things rolling. I'll let him tell his side of the story and the healing that we saw. For me, I just started asking the Lord for some words and this is what I got for the first guy:
He liked kids and was good with them. He always brings presents for his nieces and nephews. He is a good communicator of ideas and a manager where he works. He's also a peacemaker and has many memorable dreams. Praise God, they were ALL on. As for the other guy, I told him:
He was a good listener, that he learned best through listening, and that he was a good problem solver. I also felt like he had a teaching gift (though that wasn't his job) and that he had an odd sense of humor. Finally, I felt like he was also a music fan in a big way. Again, ALL of these were on and both of the guys were encouraged.
Jesus just likes lovin' on people.
