I want to share with you the story of how I met Tito, the taxi driver, and how the Lord changed his life forever.
I was debating on how to go about accomplishing the responsibilities given to me the other day when the bright idea came to me to get the lock I needed for the door upstairs and give the dog a bath afterwards. This way, I did not have to change clothes twice, but only one time.
So I headed out towards Mega Kiwi, got my taxi, and ended up in Mega Kiwi for $1.30. I bought the lock, left the store, tried my best to get a taxi for the ride home for the next 10 minutes. Man, i could not get a taxi within the next 10 minutes to save my life so I just decided to start walking so I could make at least a little progress towards the house and pay less money in the taxi. I walked for about 1.5 mintues and I ended up getting a cab. Thank God!
I opened the door and had to adjust the seat twice as if the seat was made for a person 2 feet tall. It is pretty funny becaue here in Quito, they trim the trees on the street to fit the people and I have dodge nearly every one of them because they are trimmed down to my nipples. I can´t run or I might get clothes lined by a tree made to look like a bush! So I get into the cab and see this man who looks so unsatified with life. I would talk with him in Spanish and he would answer me impatiently.
So we start talking wit him on the way to the house and out of the blue, it seems right in my spirit to ask him this question, ´´Do you have Jesus as your Savior?´´He answered with a No.
Then, I began to proceed, telling him about the peace of God. You see, I never had any peace in my life when I was into witchcraft, the sexual addictions, and drugs; but that all changed when I recieved the Lord of GLORY into my heart and the Prince of Peace moved in and made His home in my life. This began my life on the road of hope where God is so good.
I began to share the same story with him that I just shared with you right now. I told him that it is very easy to recieve Jesus into his heart. He asked how long I had the Lord in my heart, I answered, and kept on trucking along. Then, I told him that was the reason my father is in heaven right now because he recieved Jesus into his heart. It was one of those tings from left field the Lord just threw in there. I was completely and very random at the moment, but the Lord knows best. He knew that man´s heart and what he needed to hear. He heard what he needed to hear.
Look over to your right and click on the ¨Happy Father´s Day¨ Blog Post if you would like to read the story of how my father came to Christ the night before he was murdered two years ago.
You see, the Lord is so good to put us in the right place at the right time to give us the right words at the right moment. I mean, think about it, what would have happened if I decided to give Bacardi a bath and go to the store afterwards... this man would not have recieved the pivital change in his life that I am going to tell you about right now. It is not about us, but what the Lord wants to do through us.
As we arrived at the church, Alejandro met me outside. As we talked with him, he told us his name and we asked him if he wanted to pray to recieve the Lord into his heart. He said he would like to and he asked us to pray for his family, too, because he lost his father only four months ago. We prayed for him and he recieved the Lord of glory, the Prince of Peace into his heart what it says in Mathew 11:28 came true this very moment this day:
Mathew 11:28:
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.]
This man, whom was once oppressed by the devil, was liberated and uplifted by the power of God! His whole countanence changed! The Lord lifted the burdon of grief from his shoulders, displaced and replaced that anxiety withthe peace of God! The Holy Spirit can deminish anyting the devil has worked on for 20 years in a milisecond!
If you feel that you have not been living right and feel the need to come back to the Lord, I want you to know that the Lord is not ashamed of you. He is not disappointed in you.
He loves you to no end and I mean that!
The Lord can take your shame and turn into the gory of His fame as He did for me! I want you to live in Victory. There is nothing you can do to make God unlove you. His mercies are new every morning so if today is a new day from yesterday, than ou have a new chance. GET UP!
YOU ARE GOD´S PLAN A!
HE HAS NO PLAN B!
YOU ARE IT!
I really want you to know that it is ok. There is nothing you could have done so bad that would make the Lord throw his hands up at you. He is so welcoming with me and you, I promise. I love you and I knwo the Lord loves you and He wants you back in His arms, now more than ever. Who cares about your past sins! They do not matter anymore! They were obsolved in the Blod of Jesus! Theyare no more as you ar eno longer that person anymore for all old things have passed away all things have become brand new sinse you were in Christ Jesus! 2 Cor. 5:17
Let´s get back on track and do it right this time.
Lord,
I do not feel worthy right now of anything good, but thank God it is not about what I feel in my soul, but it is more important what You did at the cross 2000 years ago. You died to give me purpose and thank you for giving me purpose in You. Thank you for justifying me through Your blood and NOT my actions. Sinse you died and took me in as family, I believe I am redeemed as from sickness and poverty as I am shame. I AM THE REDEEMED OF THE LORD!
AMEN!
The Lord will take the pain of your shame and use it for the glory of His fame.
