The Story of Christian Strout Continues

12/9/2015

 Friday, June 26, 2015: I pick up Chris and carry him to the recruiter's office. The recruiter  informed us that he would be there all morning and we got there at 11 AM. Along the way I  could tell Chris was extremely depressed because things hadn't go as he planned with the  testing. I began to encourage him in the Lord giving him many examples from Scripture and
 the lives of many hows disappointments that they faced actually turned to be  the sovereignty of God working in their lives. I mentioned to him that we had placed the  situation in God's hand together. We had confessed that Jesus was the Lord of his life and  in control. That he could have confidence in the outcome because of our dedication of his  life to the Lord. I asked him to say, "Jesus Christ is my Lord," he squeaked it out, I said "I  can't hear you," he said it louder, again I said "I can't hear you." I continue this process until  he was screaming out "Jesus Christ is my Lord." Then I prayed and asked God to manifest  his presence in this situation so that Chris would know that God was in control. When we  got to the recruiter's office the door was locked; he would not answer his cell phone either.  We decided to go to lunch and wait on him. This was frustrating and it tested us but we  encourage our self and the Lord.
 At 1:30 PM after waiting 2 ½ hours the recruiter finally showed up and told Chris that his  test scores wasn't accepted at this time, in fact the quota was filled and they were not  accepting anybody. He asked Chris if he would consider going into the Army, Chris agreed  that he would. The recruiter carried the paperwork down to the Arm recruiter's office and  came back telling us that they would work with us. This to was the hand of God at work.
 This story will cotinue later.
