Durring Quiet Time

Sitting under a tree that is used by drug dealers my not be a smart place for a quiet time, but I love it there. It over looks a small and trashed filled waterfall and it's also a place where most people walk by, so there is opportunity there to witness. I was just reading scripture when a guy had stopped and had asked what I was doing. I told him that I was reading part of the Bible and was working in the plaza with the group. I then asked him if he had a relationship with God and he said no. I said no problem and started some small talk. Keep in mind we both are speaking each other's language very broken but effective. I can usually understand more Spanish than I can speak which is good and bad but yeah well. Any way back to the story, so we talked about what he does for money and just different things. He went to leave and I asked him if I could pray for him and he said sure, not really expecting anything, but God showed up as I was praying. I heard God saying to give him some money to get some bread, so I did when he asked for it. At that moment his eyes lite up and he began to ask me questions about church and different things. He told me to wait a minute and he would be right back with the bread, so i did. When he returned with a piece of bread in his hand and a huge smile on his face I knew God had changed his life. Others had some awesome people turn their lives to God as we also went prayer walking from house to house. People being healed, giving up drugs and alcohol, and just people lighting up for someone who cares for them enough to pray for them.

The pictures are for the next story below this one.
