THAT CONVERSATION

Today as I sat in the lab I had a conversation with a young man because I over heard him say, “He wants to become a Christian”. I responded and told him that I am proud of him. He seemed so surprised that he came to sit next to me and asked me why I am proud of him because no one has ever been proud of him. The conversation shifted from him becoming a Christian to, explaining who God is. He basically believes that we know God exists because of our emotions; it has nothing to do with faith. I told him by faith we believe in God. I could not explain God to him, but I told him that he would have to experience him; all he should do is allow God to intervene in his life. What I learnt from this young man is that we know that truth about Christ yet we are willing to negotiate and compromise our way through. We want to deny what wont suit us and turn it into something worth being logical, Gods word is true.
