love you neighbor.
I have been asking God to provide me with some type of ministry here/something to do here. It didn't take long for God to answer. I remember one time at a particular Bible study, Jared Mitchell saying something about if we are ever in need of something to do, all we have to do is flip through the Bible. It was impressed upon my heart to simply love my neighbor meaning all ppl. I want to simply be available to anyone. So I decided to make cookies for my actual neighbors. After several days of wanting to go over there, gaining some encouragement from some friends, and reflecting upon the life of Abbie Short, I finally did today. I introduced myself and said if she ever needed help with her daughter to let me know. It was a very short conversation. About twenty minutes later, my door bell rings and it is her. She wants to talk more. I invited her in. After talking for a bit, she asks if I am baptist. I said yes, and asked her if she went to church anywhere. She said she and her husband are in search of a religion. They have been attending a Jehovah's Witness church (I think only because someone invited them), so I invited her to church. She said she would tell her husband. She seemed interested.
Please continue to pray for them (Jasmine and Luis) and for Mark and I.
God is so good. Good isn't even enough to describe Him.
I love this! I love moments when the mighty ways that God moves are revealed to us after we simply listen to Him!
