Here in Cairns we are surrounded by HEAPS of people. All the oldies that come up North have filled the free camps and caravan parks. We enjoy being surrounded by people, having a chat and getting to know those around us, it's an enjoyable part of our journey.
In our conversations with people, we as often as we can chat about Church, which hopefully and often leads to chatting about our beliefs, and chatting about God. We don't force or push God onto people, we always use discernment, and if we pick up that people don't want to hear about Church, God and our Beliefs, we don't push it onto them, it is their choice whether they want to know more or not.
However, it is a real blessing and it brings HEAPS of joy to us and warms our hearts when people receive what we have shared, show interest and ask questions about Church, God and Our Beliefs.
As we chat and minister to people, does everyone make a decision then and there to follow God and have a relationship with HIM, unfortunately nope...however, they have been introduced to HIM, they know they have a choice, they have heard about HIM, they have help, they know there is HOPE, there always is HOPE and that is our job, to plant seeds of Gods beautiful LOVE all over Australia, by telling them about Church, God and our beliefs and by showing them the Love of God by acts of kindness, and that is what we are doing.
Do I wish, hope and pray EVERYONE we chat with would come to have a real and beautiful relationship with God, YES, YES I DO...however, I don't have control over that, I can SHOW them Gods Wonderful LOVE, TELL them about HIM, and hope their hearts are open to receive HIS LOVE, HIS Way of Life and build a life changing relationship with HIM, but I can't force them!
So as we chat and minster with people, as we display HIS LOVE to them in acts of kindness and Love, as we chat about Church and invite them to Church, as we share our beliefs, as we share with those around us, with those that know HIM, knew HIM and don't know HIM at all, we ask that you pray for us to speak with both LOVE and authority, pray that we stretch ourselves to step out more, with boldness and love. I ask that you pray for each and every area we visit, that peoples hearts will warm to us and to GOD and that HIS will, and HIS will alone will be done in us and through us, in HIS people and through them xo
