I managed to share the gospel with my colleague through MSN

Isaiah 55:11, “11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”

This month was supposed to the 7th Month Hungry Ghost festival accordingly to and secular beliefs. My company has organized a ritual to pray to the “ghosts” in return for peace and protection during this period of time. Being a Christian, I pointed out to my HR that I do not want to get involved. However my HR manager insisted that I must attend the prayer session even if I do not participate in it. She said that this is a company policy. Reluctantly I obeyed her instructions. Deep down in my heart, I felt sad that my colleagues are all fervently going to pray to the “ghosts” and not Jesus. Perhaps no one has shared the gospel with them.

When I got home, I gave my MSN a nickname “真的不明白” which means “Really don’t understand”. While I was surfing the net, one of my colleagues was also online and she got curious by my nickname. So she decided to ask me why I gave myself such a nickname. I told her if she has ever wondered why people would rather pray to the dead spirit and not to the living God, who can bless them instead? As the conversation continues, this topic actually led me to share the gospel with her. I was overjoyed because I have been looking for opportunities to share the gospel with my colleagues. I also referred her to His Harvest Church blog to let her read about all the blessings that our members have received.

I pray that God will eventually touch her in a way that she will come to the knowledge of God and receive Jesus as her Lord and Savior. I have released the Word of God through my mouth and I believe that Word of God that I have shared with her will deposit in her spirit somewhere and somehow for it is written:

Isaiah 55:11, “11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”
