So earlier tonight, I was with a few friends at carnitas. As we get our food and begin to eat, a homeless man walks up to us and asks if one of us could buy him some food for his wife. I decided to buy him food and walked with him to the ordering window. As I ordered some food for him, a thought came over me. It was quick. Fleeting. There for a second, and gone just as fast. In short, that thought said "talk to him about Jesus". What did I do?
I bitched out.
Instead of listening to that thought, that thought that was God's voice, I bitched out and said nothing. I handed him the receipt so that he could pick up his food, said "God bless", went back to my seat, and sat there. I've got to say, I'm kind of disappointed and ashamed in myself for not even trying. For just brushing off the opportunity to possibly experience the joy that is bringing someone to Christ. I guess I have some nutting up to do...
