Wow girls, I am still recovering from the week 3 video. I am not sure there is any justice I could do in writing about it! Anyway, I realize it has been almost 2 weeks since I wrote, we did not have Internet Connection at our condo, but I am back on track.

My heart is pounding inside right now, I hope you will allow me to share what just happened to me, I am afraid it may turn into a dissertation but it is so incredible....it's so believing God.

I just arrived home from meeting a dear friend that I met my first year of college, she was senior. (Mind you, this was 20 years ago...YIKES!) We have managed to keep in touch over the years, sometimes though, several years have passed that only Christmas cards were our means to communication. She called me several weeks ago, as I had not talked to her for over a year, we planned to get together for breakfast today (which actually turned into lunch!) Over the years I have prayed for her, not only for her salvation but for life things in general, you understand. One thing I have prayed consistently is that God would provide an opportunity for sharing Jesus with her. In Cherie's mind, sharing Jesus is laying the gospel right out there, they get it, and receive Jesus and there is another soul for his kingdom, you know the text book kind of leading someone to Christ! Well needless to say, my human side would always come home a bit disappointed because the opportunity to share seemed limited. I do know that God not only works through our lips, he also works through our lives, I was simply underestimating His power. Anyway, long story longer, (sorry) instead of shorter, after I watched the video last night I, without reservation or doubt cried out to God...PROVIDE ME AN OPPORTUNITY TOMORROW LORD, I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT! We met this morning at 9am sat and talked, laughed and reminisced for 2 hours at the Bread Co. She then excused herself to the bathroom but before she did, she reached in her purse pulled out 4 pieces of paper and said, "While I'm gone, look at this Grocery Game I do, it really works." (I have probably used 3 coupons my whole life). We both got a good laugh as she is coupon queen. As I glanced over it, I saw some writing on the back of one of the pages and I casually flipped it over, there were about 5 names written down, the second one being "Beth Moore". My brain literally did flip flops. Just under assumption I figured this was not the Beth Moore you and I have received our teaching from these past several weeks but this was without a shadow of a doubt THE opportunity! When she returned we laughed about the Grocery Game and then I casually asked what the names were on the back, "just school names she replied" I then proceeded to tell her I was doing a really neat Bible Study online and the teacher's name was Beth Moore. (Now I can shorten the story up a bit) This led to another hour long conversation starting very gently and ending with my Bible that I keep in my purse on the table, her hearing the word of God and accepting Christ as her Savior! Simply amazing! God can do what he says he can do. Really, I think Beth says it best "Glory to God!" Thanks for letting me share, lets continue to seek THE MOST HIGH GOD! I love you all and hope you are growing tremendously from this study. I kind of don't like being the only one chatting so much, please share how you have seen God do what he says He can do.
