I can really relate to that scripture today. After church I felt a little prompt to go and invite a lady I'd never seen before who was sitting just along from me, to have coffee with me in our adjoining cafe. She burst into tears and said she had just prayed that someone would ask her as she hadn't wanted to go in there and sit by herself. This really reminded me to be a bit bolder and not think about the rejection I might get but the rewards of responding to the prompting of the Holy Spirit. She is a lovely lady and I think we are going to be friends...what a reward!
Oh my goodness, Carol! How wonderful! What a blessing you were to her today. I hope that when I move in a couple of months that I find someone just as kind as you who will invite me to coffee too! You have a new friend, God is so good!
