Taxi ride



Fellow Servants,
On Friday, my wife and I joined some friends (Mark, Amanda, and Grandma Irma) and enjoyed the Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall. Most of you know that my wife suffers with chronic back and leg pain due to a series of accidents through the years. Therefore, we hired a car service to take us from Brooklyn to NYC and back again. On the return trip, our driver and I were talking. As I was guiding the conversation toward a gospel witness, he asked if I was a priest (he was from a Catholic background). I assured him that I was. Then he shared that his sixteen year old daughter had just found out she was pregnant. He wanted to talk about how to proceed with this matter. I shared that we had been through this in our family many years ago. The next several minutes were spent in very intense sharing and amazing evidence that God was all over this conversation by all parties involved. I know you have had these kinds of experiences. Please pray for Tony and his family as he goes through this trial to be drawn closer to the Lord and to his family by the stress.
Just goes to show you that God can use us even when we are just trying to get a little rest and relaxation.
