The Story of Christian Strout Continues

12/10/2015

,The Army recruiter was friendly and very helpful; his name was Sgt. Derek Tassin. He gave  Chris a list of the benefits of joining the Army, the pay scale and said that he would give him  in writing the area of trained that he would receive in the Army. Chris' countenance came  alive. As the recruiter talked; on his right arm there was an orange wristband; but he  gestured with his hands so rapidly I could not read what it said. Finally I read the word  "God;" I stopped him and ask what was meaning of the orange wristband. He immediately
 began to talk to us about his faith in Jesus Christ. Immediately the Holy Spirit's presence  came into the room. I told him that both of us had been praying all morning about Chris'  future. I asked Sgt. Tassin if he would pray for Chris and his future; that God would
 direct his life. He did!
 A few minutes later another recruiter, Sgt. Scott M Robertson stuck his head in the door. He  was introduced as Si Robertson's son that plays on "Duck Dynasty." I asked him if he was a  believer in Jesus Christ; and he was. I also asked him to pray for Chris and his journey
 into the future in the Lord. At this time Scott fell of his knees and began to pray.
 Afterward I asked to speak to Sgt. Tassin alone and explain to him that Chris' parents were  both working and I was helping the family out. The Sgt. said, "I have chilled bumps all over  me from the presence of God." I told him, "My eyes are leaking." Two things that Sgt.  Tassin said that caught my attention. First, he had been a recruiter for 15  years and nothing like this had ever happened before. Second, just as we came in, he had  prayed that he could see a manifestation of God presence. The Sgt. gave Chris an Army T-  shirt as a jester of kindness. As we left the office, Chris and I agreed together that we had  seen a manifestation of God's presence in what had happened and he was greatly  encouraged. Christian knew for certain that his God was leading him.
