What if our eyes were opened to see people as God sees them? This morning, I spent some time coaching my co-worker, Eric, telling him how we are bigger than ATN Rwanda. The work we are doing of making disciples has to be generational. After a good conversation, one girl came to our office and she just wanted me for counseling, so Eric gave us some time and went out. As he was standing at the gate, a man passing by was selling a sign board. Eric greeted him and started bargaining for the price but the man looked hopeless. Eric decided to buy his sign board. As they entered the Peace House parking lot, the man told Eric that he is addicted to alcohol, he has misused his life, and he doesn’t know how he can be saved. He told Eric that his wife and kids are suffering because of his addiction and he is ashamed to go to church with his wife. He said he would return to church after he becomes a good man, father, and husband. Eric told him that Jesus is ready to receive him as he is. He started sharing some scriptures and he texted me and asked me to pray for this man. I prayed in my office that God would reveal himself to the man. He gave his contact to Eric and the plan to to follow up. Please join us in prayer for Dominic (the new believer).
