So last night after we got back, I went out to Waffle House. Now i know some may say Waffle House food is bad for you and yea it probably is. But all i got was a waffle and coffee so it wasn't that bad. But if you go in when there is hardly anyone else there besides the workers it is a great ministry opportunity. I know this first hand.
So I went in last night and I planned on reading Ruth and Ester because we have a bible study with a lady later today named Cristina and we told her to read through at least one or both of those for today and we would talk about them. So I'm in there and its only me in the diner. As I'm reading, one of the waiters named James asks me about the church I go to and the things i believe. Then my waitress, DJ, starts to talk with us. Then the cook, whose name I believe is Andrew came over. He didn't say anything but was listening. So we got to sit down and talk for almost and hour as they asked me questions and told me about their past lives. In the end before i left they were all getting off their shift and a new shift was coming on. Before James left he came and shook my hand and left a note that he had written on a napkin. He wrote that he had been living a sinful life and that he needed me to pray for him. That he was afraid of going to Hell and he feels that he is leading his wife and children there. I was absolutely blown away. This man after a hour of knowing me admits his life is sinful and recognizes the need for change. Needless to say I will be returning to Waffle House and hopefully I can talk with James some more. Pray for him!!!!
