Evangelism

I am encouraged in reading about the urgency Saint Francis towards evangelism, and not only that but his desire to collect a team of colleages to engage in the same mission.

Here recently many doors have been opended to share Jesus with broken people who have stumbled into my life, it has not been uncommon this semester to have someone crash on the couch in the living room I share with my roommate. Evangelism has taken new life as I have had the opportunity to share Jesus with a friend here recently. About three weeks ago, I was contacted about a guy on campus who was broken and really needed someone to talk to, I followed up that request with a two hour conversation about life with this student. Its funny how not in control we are. If we simply pray the prayer, "father sourround me with broken people." He does! Infact, he not only brings broken people into your life, but gives you new eyes to see brokenness, and puts his words truth in your mouth, and gives you his hands to heal. Each week I have been given opportunities to share the gospel with young, old, homeless, wealthy, drug abusers, crazy women in UA parking lot, people with nothing, and lost students on campus. I am no saint, nor am I sinless- but my God continues to lavish his grace upon me, and my weaknesses have become my strength.
