Another Wednesday afternoon of fishing in Courtenay

Thursday, December 11th 2008, 1:07 AM 23 3
Last week's tracting and 1-2-1's went well in Courtenay so I decided to do the same thing again...on the sidewalk outside the Christian book store downtown. My new tract order arrived just in time and I distributed 200 of the Santa 50K bills in 90 mins. It was a little colder this week and people were in more of a hurry so I didn't have any 1-2-1's. Several times people questioned what I was handing out and I would explain that the true meaning of Christmas was on the back and most seemed happy about that. I think some feared that I was a JW! LOL.

I started out by saying "Did you get your Santa bucks yet" and people were hesitating so I just changed to saying "Merry Christmas" and handed them a tract. That was much easier...maybe they thought I was handing out coupons. A few people from my village passed by and were surprised to see me there and what I was doing and I gave them tracts too. I'm sure they believe I have lost my mind. I don't care.

Also...while travelling today, I managed to tract every washroom I was in as well (four of them...hehe). Not just my stall, but the empty stalls as well and around the paper dispensers and mirrors, etc. And I tracted the pet food department at Safeway as well.

Tonight I included about 60 tracts in the Christmas cards that will be mailed tomorrow. I'm sure I'll be crossed off a few people's Christmas card list next year. Again...I don't care. LOL.

On the drive home (2 hours) my daughter and I had listened to all the WOTMR podcasts that I had left on my iPod so I had a good conversation with her about her salvation (she's 11) without any distractions. I hope I'm saying the right things to her to help her understand. I've got the Ray Comfort book "How to bring your children to Christ and keep them there" but haven't had time to read it yet. I need to get to that soon!

All in all, a great day. Praise the Lord!

About Me

My photo
I am a born again Christian (there is no other kind) who is passionate about the gospel. I believe in the basic evangelism principles of "Law to the proud and Grace to the humble". I seek to share the gospel wherever my Lord takes me. I am seeking to connect with others who are eager to share the Law and the Gospel in various places around north Vancouver Island, Way of the Master style. Yes, it is scary...but it is effective. We are commanded to share the good news of the Gospel and if we love God and if we love people, we MUST share our faith in a BIBLICAL manner...just like Jesus did! I thought that because I was heavily involved in my church, attended regularly, tithed, and I BELIEVED in Jesus that I was saved! There is much more to it. I had not repented (turned from) my sin. As soon as I realized that I was a wretched blob of filth, I fell to my knees, repented and put my life in the hands of Jesus. I can feel God's transforming presence daily in my life. I am excited about each day and what new opportunities it may bring. If you are interested in teaming up for some evangelism activities, please email me: shutterkat@gmail.com
