My out of place space

My entire blog, the title, url, and anything else, is based on one principal that I want every one to know: If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and your Savior..this isn't your home, heaven is, and it's coming soon. That is the most encouraging thing that we Christians can dwell on, it's our hope, our future..our eternal future. -(1 Peter 2:11,12)

Campaña

WElp, the campaign is over and there's now nothing left to do but school work. The campaign went very well. I got to witness for the very first time in spanish, and God even blessed me with the privelege of leading a 17 year old guy to Him. It was amazing. It's only been about 6 months since i've known the alphabet in spanish and now God's blessed me with the words to bring people to Him. The people here seen to have no problem letting their kids walk away with strangers and not come back for hours. We went door to door asking kids in this really poor area of the town if they wanted to come to this thing at the field in the town square. There we had games and food and then the gospel was presented and people like me and others from the bilingual program shared with the kids. It was really neat, although i feel like alot of the kids came just for the food, knowing that they'd have to listen to a message. One of the kids, however went back home with someone from my class and that person got to share Crist with the kid's mom, who ended up recieving Christ as her Savior and Lord. The saddest thing is that we probably won't get to see the fruits of our labors until we get to heaven. I was in a traveling group, that went to a different church every day, so i didn't get to see that kid again that i lead to Christ...which saddened me, as it should i guess anyone. I think that one of the biggest problems in the church is a lack of discipleship. People get saved and have no idea where to go from there...some might not even know to go to the church and seek discipleship. Like this kid, for example, had never even heard of Jesus and His sacrifice, much less about growing through prayer and reading the bible and fellowship with believers. Well, basicly, i learned alot, and was blessed emensly (sp?). Thank you everyone for your prayers and for reading...i'm out for now. God bless you all.

Jayson,
I can not imagine the blessing that you are receiving for all your efforts in spreading the "Good News" to those you have not had the opportunity to know Him as you and I have all our lives. We missed you Sat. for our 50th anniversary celebration.
Our love and prayers,
Grandma and Grandfather
