God is still at work
God is still at work
January 10, 2021
Greetings Friends,
Here on Tsushima Island, we had 9 patients with coronavirus last year, and fortunately, they were all discharged from the hospital. I am praying also that God protects you and your family from the coronavirus.
Our mission update and prayers requested.
Last month as I helped my friend, Komori, who is a farmer working on an orange farm, there I met a man who also came to help him. His name is Masaya.
Masaya is just one year older than me and his main work is to polish the Buddha Statue in the temple. Masaya does not have his driver’s license, so it is difficult for him to go to the hospital to see his doctor and to buy food because we do not have a good public transportation service here. So I asked him if he needs our help to get there by our car. He was so glad to have our help. So I took him to his hospital and got his food next day.
While I was driving, we talked to each other about many things and I was praying for him so that he can know Jesus as his true Savior. Then God gave me the courage to tell him about what we believe and what Jesus did for us. At first, I thought he was not interested in our belief because he is a dedicated Buddhist and has been working hard in the temple polishing the statue of Buddha for over 20 years.
But on the contrary, he was very interested in our belief and listened attentively. So, I gave him a book with many Bible verses which encourage our hearts and a lot with beautiful pictures of the nature God created. He was glad to read the book and after that, every time I take him in the car, he is happy to learn about Jesus.
Please pray for him so he accepts God’s love and Christ’s salvation soon, then gets to work hard for Jesus instead of working hard in a Buddhist temple.
Therefore, You are great, O Lord GOD. For there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears. II Samuel 7,22
