Opportunities

Yesterday Joey came home from Cagney's from meeting the men for breakfast. He was a little teary, and you have to understand in 29 years I have seen Joey cry maybe 3 times ( at deaths in the family) until this last year. I asked him what was up, he said that for the last week or two, one of the waitresses kept kind of bugging them at their table, she kept coming often, messing at the table and Joey was getting annoyed. But yesterday morning God spoke to Joey during this time, he realized that Jennifer might have been trying to listen to their conversations. Joey and a few of the men there have these great deep discussions on God, the church, life, and other aspects of living the christian life. It hit him between the eyes, so he asked Jennifer if she went to church anywhere, she has lived a hard life, she told him she was looking for a church for her daughter to get involved with. So Joey invited her to church on Sunday and she says she will come. He told me after he got home that we sometimes forget that the mission field is right in front of our faces and we don't pay enough attention to what is before us. We all have a mission field, some of us see more people than others, but we do have opportunities everyday, if we slow down and watch for God to move.
