Evening Prayer Meeting

Top of the prayer list tonight was 'Church in the Park', our Pentecost outreach tent meeting. Mark called on Sarah B_ to encourage us with her testimony, which was that she first met with Jesus in a Tent meeting. As Sarah was 6 at the time, she couldn't remember much, but two things had stayed with her: 1) Jesus became her friend. 2) The memory of the lovely woman with a warm smile who really listened to her. I looked at Sarah and realised the circle was complete - what she loved, she had become: a lovely woman with a warm smile who really listens and receives children. We often hear of the 'vicious circle' and there is a Hindu saying, "What you hate, you become". Isn't it great to know that in God's kingdom the reverse is true.
