Trust God’s Providence “As You Go”

READ MORE

We don’t often think about or realize that God provides the exact tracts He wants us to carry and hand people. I got two reminders this weekend.

Saturday after a football tournament here in Columbus, OH, I went to speak to a father of an injured child who had traveled from Indiana to play. As I gave him directions to a local Urgent Care I pulled out my wallet (I keep bezeugen tracts there, they fit nicely) in order to give him a tract and my card in case he needed to contact me. I was quite pleased to find a ‘football trivia’ tract I had forgotten was in my wallet! I found this quite appropriate for the moment and was grateful to God for providing!

Then yesterday evening I met a young lady at an ice cream parlor who was taking my money for the ice cream. She had a necklace with a cross and I told her I liked her necklace and asked her if she would consider herself a Christian. Her response was something to the effect of, “Yes, I go to such and such church, and I have a tattoo of a cross on my back.” I’ll admit, I made a sweeping generalization that this wasn’t the type of response I’d expect from a truly born-again sister in Christ. I was again pleased by the Lord’s graciousness and mercy to me as He had caused me to bring the DZHENOU (Does He know you?) tracts with me that day. I handed her one and told her not to read the back until she figured out the puzzle on the front. I thought a tract that would cause her to question what it means to really know and be known by Christ was perfect…

but I really can’t expect any less from our God.
