Confidence in Christ
My family was on a flight to Jamaica to spend the holidays with my wife’s family. I was seated in one row with the boys, and Wendy was seated behind me with our daughter, Sadie.
Wendy sat down next to a young, quietly confident man named, Rob. Wendy is very friendly, so naturally she struck up a conversation with him. I listened as they chatted throughout our flight. The conversation eventually turned to spiritual matters, and Wendy boldly proclaimed the truth in love. He listened, and they shared their views back and forth.
Finally, Wendy said, “If you died today, do you know where you’d go?” I was quietly listening- stunned, as I’d never heard Wendy use that approach before.
As some of you may know, our plane crashed shortly after. My wife followed the Holy Spirit’s leading, and was obedient to share with Rob. And on the day she questioned him about death, he barely escaped it.
As a military man, Rob was equipped to calmly handle the emergency. He took charge, and helped everyone off the plane, including my family. Rob was the last man off the plane. He is a hero. We are continuing to pray for his salvation.
Is there someone in your life, who needs preparation for their last day on earth? Learn from my wife, and be bold in your faith. That day may come soon.
