Brothers

“How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony!”Psalms‬ ‭133‬:‭1‬ ‭HCSB‬‬

Today I found a lost sheep, no not a wooly one a human one. I had a hair cut and was walking to the grocery store and the thought hit me, “I need a new belt”. My exisiting one was one I bought in Nepal and it was dead, almost. I saw a shop not seen before which had leather goods. I thought to myself, “probably too expensive.” I stsrted talking to the man at the counter and told him I was a missionary on her way to Nepal. Turns out he was a pastor who lost his church and his family. I cried for him even though my story is the same. However, he is not in fellowship. I apologised for my bluntness but told him to come back to church . He was Anglican but hey he might like a lively Pentecostal church. I invited him along. I walked out with a free new belt. I cried some more and prayed that the Lord would bless him and work on him to come home. It is funny that my communion message on Sunday was the prodigal son.

After lunch I had to go to a storage facility to arrange a shed for my few remaining possessions. The man was delayed and so I went for a walk. I saw the best new buildings that would make a great church. I emailed my pastor with the question: are you ready to grow and attached some photos. He replied “you are a visionary Di Case”. Yes it is true. My God is a big God!

My new friend is Daniel. Pray he comes back to church! Amen!
