WHERE ELSE BUT HERE?

WHEN YOU HEAR THE WORDS......"I WANT TO JOIN YOUR CHURCH".  THIS LAND IS RICH WITH THE BELIEF OF JESUS CHRIST, AND NO MATTER WHERE WE WALK YOU CAN FEEL AND SEE THEIR LOVE FOR HIM. JUST YESTERDAY ELDER TERRY AND I WERE WALKING IN A COMPOUND WHEN A MAN ON CRUTCHES CAME UP TO US TO SEE IF HE COULD ASSIST US. HE WAS SHOWING US AROUND WHEN HE STOPPED TALKING AND FASTENED HIS EYES ON OUR BADGES, AND SAID "I WANT TO JOIN YOUR CHURCH". HE HAD CONTACT WITH THE MISSIONARIES BEFORE, AND LOST HIS PHONE AND COMMUNICATION WITH THEM. HERE IS A MAN THAT SEES AND REMEMBERS JESUS CHRIST AND WANTS MORE OF THE GOSPEL SHARED WITH HIM. WE SPOKE OF CHRIST'S LOVE TO PLACE US TOGETHER TO FIND HIM ONCE AGAIN, AND HIS LIGHT OF LOVE SURROUNDING US. HE PUT HIS NAME ON THE BACK OF ONE OF MY BUSINESS CARDS WITH A PHONE NUMBER THAT HE DOESN'T HAVE. I TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD HAVE MISSIONARIES COME AND SPEAK WITH HIM. WITHIN A MATTER OF NOT EVEN A DAY, THE MISSION PRESIDENT OF ACCRA CONTACTED ME FROM MY REQUEST, AND THE LORD'S WORK MOVES FORWARD. EVEN THOUGH HE HAS LOST HIS PHONE THE MISSIONARIES HAVE FOUND HIM ONCE AGAIN, AND A SHEEP HAS BEEN FOUND. HOW CAN ANYONE'S DAY BE ANY BETTER!


CHARLES, CHRIST LOVES YOU!
