Sunday, December 20, 2015: A testimony by Tim Smith. Bill John and I were having our regular Sunday morning fellowship time at McDonald's. I noticed a young man coming across the parking lot, he looked like a crackhead but he had drawn my attention. A few minutes later he left with his food but when he got back to his car; he must have locked the keys on the inside. As I watched he was using a coat hanger to try and unlock the car door. I felt the leading of the Holy Spirit to go talk to the guy; I introduced myself to him and shared a brief testimony of how Christ delivered me from a lifetime of chemical addictions through Celebrate Recovery. He told me he worked for the Voith Company on Well Road in West Monroe. Tim asked him if he could pray for him and he agreed. As he finished praying and looked up there was a policeman standing beside them. The officer asked if this was his car and he assured the policeman that it was; it only took the policeman a short time and he had the door open. The guy turns to Tim and says, "The Lord has showed up." This was a spiritually energizing occasion for Tim, for which he is grateful. The joy of God’s Grace upon the simplest acts of obedience are exhilarating! The harvest is not in the barn, it's in McDonald's parking lot.
