Witnessing on KCC

It's been a while since my last entry. A lot has been happening, and it would be difficult to share everything ranging from personal trials God has been putting me through to outreach events we've been doing. But today was one of those days I want to praise God for. Today was the first day of summer project in which the staff left, passing on roles to lead the project onto us. My team and I went out to Kapiolani Community College as normal to discuss plans and to continue to reach out to the students on campus. Daniel and I paired up and started walking around campus as we prayed. As Daniel was finishing up praying, we passed by a kid smoking a cigarette with a wooden cross dangling from his neck. When it was my turn to pray, I couldn't, and instead I felt like we needed to turn around and talk to that guy. So we started conversation. His name was Ralph, and he was raised Catholic, but he did not have an understanding of the Christian faith. Daniel eventually shared with him who God is and the heart of Christianity, and afterward, I felt the urge to present him with the opportunity to accept Christ's sacrifice. He accepted, and we got to pray for him. Afterward, Daniel asked him what he was thinking, and he replied "I feel like I know what I have to do, but I can't put it into words." I'm not sure what was going on in Ralph's heart, but I trust God that He has entered into Ralph's life and will begin to change his life in great ways. I pray that we will be able to be a part of Ralph's journey in having a relationship with God. Afterward, Daniel and I reflected upon what happened. He felt compelled also to talk to Ralph when we first walked by. It's funny to see how God used us both to bring the Gospel directly to Ralph today.
