For several months I’ve been working with a young man who has been dating a young lady. They seem to be a good match for one another but, she was raised in a religion that didn’t recognize the need of accepting Christ into one’s life. They had talked endlessly about this and she and I had also met where I gave her scriptures and a prayer she could pray. When I met with this young man yesterday and asked how his week had gone, he told me his girlfriend had accepted Jesus into her life and he was able to be with her when she prayed. It tears me up just writing this here.

He had been told by family members he needed to break up this relationship before it took him astray. He liked her enough to stay with her and give her the time she needed. Well, I know not all relationships work out this beautifully, but I sure do praise God this one did. This young man said that now he is free to move into a relationship building to see if the outcome is to be marriage. How beautiful is all of this! It is so rewarding to watch God working and the patience He has allowing His kids the time needed. What a wonderful God we get to serve!
