Better bargain than catalogue

Have always wanted to replace a broken cabinet at home and there was a cabinet on special buy on Aldi catalogue for past Saturday. Thought I should drop by to see if there was still left over stock.

Pray before I go asking the Lord to help me with tracting. Another sister interceded with me.

There was a few chinese people around the shop. So gave out two Mandarin Gospel Rally invites, a Chinese tract and an English tract.

Of course I was at a lookout for the expired special buy cabinet too. Nope, none to be seen! HOWEVER, there was one and only one BIGGER cabinet of a different material for sale. The size is just what I wanted and being the last one on the floor, it was further discounted 30%!!! Joy ~ God has prepared a better cabinet on a better price for me!

It was too heavy for me to carry into my car. Asked the cashier, Will, to help me to get the two flat packs into the car. And there at the car park, tracted him.

Heart is filled with joy and remembered Psalms 37:5 'Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass'.

Thank God for helping me to tract and also providing me the long wanted suitable cabinet replacement in an unexpected way!

What happens to a tract after you give it to someone?

Thank God for a great encouragement that He is a Sovereign God, that His Word shall not return void unto Him but will accomplish all that He purposes, and that our labour in the Lord is not in vain.
All throughout my privileged opportunity of giving out Gospel tracts, I have not ever heard of what happened to a tract whose recipient I did not see again (occasionally I will meet with people who had previously received tracts, but those who I never saw again are a complete mystery: how did they respond? where did the tract end up? who read the tract?).
Today I heard of what happened to a tract which I gave out yesterday. I can't even remember who received that tract, but the tract ended up being located by another sister-in-Christ.
Someone in church had a student and gave her a THIS WAS YOUR LIFE tract. The little girl read it, but before reading to the end, she lost it at a shopping mall. When she was offered another tract, this little girl said that she had found another one already. Upon further inquiry and asking to see the tract, she found out from the number on the back that this was the very tract that I had given a man in the park yesterday! It turns out that he did not read the tract, being a nominal christian who rarely went to church, but his daughter found it, and read it aloud to her dad in the car.
This has been of great comfort to me. Often we know that our service is unto the Lord, whether He chooses to use our testimony of the Gospel as a savour of life unto life or as a savour of death unto death is entirely up to Him, He has a purpose for His word and it will not return unto Him void, but sometimes we can feel discouraged and wonder if God will ever use these tracts which we give to people who we know may never read them. Once the tracts leave our hands, we don't really know what happens to them and we may think that they will end up as wastepaper, but we have not seen behind the scenes, God can work in mysterious ways His wonders to perform, He is the true and Living God: His arm is not shortened.

iPad down, Eyes up for Souls

Mabu. I usually use my iPad on the bus, but this time I didn't. Around halfway to uni, an African lady leaned over and asked me how to get to ECU. I told her that I was going there and said I could take to ECU and to the building if she wanted. She was very thankful and I managed to get to know her a little bit on the walk to her building (which was at the south end of campus). She had fled South Africa and arrived in Perth in May and was picking up her English test results at ECU. Before she left, I handed her a tract and openly told her that I was a Christian. She was so happy, took the tract, and said that she was a Christian too. I asked her if she had a church to worship at and she said she worshipped at Cornerstone (a Charismatic church) since she lived in Joondalup.

Thank God for the opportunity. Sometimes I think it is a good thing not to be glued to your phone or electronic device - people are usually more likely to interact with you. :)

How You React Depends Whether Tract is in Hand

Tract in hand I went out to do some grocery shopping. A gangster looking Asian guy said hello to me at shopping centre. I reacted out of instinct and avoided him. But immediately God convicted my heart about this man that he may not know Christ and I am walking away without dispensing the gospel message. A quick prayer in heart I turned back and called out to the man that I have something for him. Actually he turned out really polite and open to receive gospel tract. Reminds me that the gospel of Christ is for every sinner, not just for the well dressed. Thank God for courage to speak to this man and for teaching me a lesson tonight.- @ 7:55pm in South Lake last night
