A few weeks ago I did a post about bumping into someone who was doing something good.
Well, it happened again this morning. Our tribe had just finished loading up for Saturday grocery delivery with Lakeview Pantry. Before heading out to deliver, I ran over to Starbucks to grab Gil a shot of "wake me up". I stepped inside and there was Victoria, an active member of our Lakeview location sitting at a table by door. We said hello and after some conversation I asked her what she was up to.
What was she doing at Starbucks this morning? Having quiet time with God. Her Bible was open, her notebook was out and she was seeking Jesus. And I was privileged to see her doing it. She wasn't expecting to see anyone and wasn't obeying Jesus for the sake of anyone else. She was just doing what a follower of Jesus does and I happened to witness it by "accident".
I've got to say that these simple encounters--bumping into New Life people who are demonstrating God's heart in simple and unnoticed acts of obedience, is the best part of being a pastor. Praying for many more moments like these. What an awesome work God is doing in the hearts and lives of people
