Early in the first month of 2018, my first book in print had been published and I set off for the bus station to obtain them. I shared the incident of how a young scruffy man walked up to me, asking whether I needed assistance. I handed him the load and he helped me to the bus station.
Upon arrival at the bus station, I thanked him and shared the Gospel with him. I led him to the Lord and blessed him with money for breakfast. Then, I gave him a tract and wrote my phone number on it. I asked him to get in touch (even though I was not really expecting him to call- he did not even have a phone then).
Fast forward to Boxing Day, I missed about two calls from an unknown number because my phone was away from me at the time. The third time, I saw the incoming call and picked it up. Lo! It was Ralph- that same young scruffy man from the bus station! He was calling to wish me a Merry Christmas! My heart leapt! What joy!
He asserted that he now goes to Church and I was so elated! Glory!
After over eleven months, he still traced back to me the most significant encounter in His lifetime- experiencing Jesus!
What a delight! What a major thrust to make this season about the One who made it all possible- Jesus Christ!
Thank God for His indescribable gift!
