I seems like it happened for a reason and wasn't random, perhaps it was planting the seed. I can't help but wonder if it affected any of your friends that night as much as it affected you. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Therese I love this story. I seems like it happened for a reason and wasn't random, perhaps it was planting the seed.

And, yes, I bet you two will be great friends in heaven because of this brief connection. <br /><br />If he had found out at the time that you were a militant athiest trying to make a fool of him, he probably would have been mad or very embarrassed (at least I would have been). But look what God has done!<br /><br />I will try to keep that in mind if I ever find myself on his side of this kind of an exchange. Trust in God. What a beautiful story.

I thought about that comment because I remember on a tv show (of all things) one character said that people are put in our lives for a reason (she was speaking about friends in particular but it probably goes with everyone we meet more or less).<br /><br />Of course, if we are Christian and playing our part as a Christian, we can touch the lives of everyone, even strangers just by a simple kindness (a smile, a kind touch, a bit of charity) and if they know you are Christian, they will possibly draw closer to God. :) I noticed Julie C said this man was put in your path by God.

Truth will always trump evil. Holiness will always trump worldliness. Time and again, people think they control their lives, their own destiny but God is the creator of all and we all live within His creation and within his natural laws. Do what is right and you will prevail. I am always amazed at how God can turn a bad situation into good. Truth will always trump evil. Holiness will always trump worldliness.

This is one of your best… and some pretty potent writing.

Doesn't God write the best stories in our lives?
