Feedback please, a miracle meeting

[mikado5001]

I have to share this with you.

Yesterday my Pastor called to cancel the Bible Study for the evening. He had an event to go to with his son. So I was on my way home. But G-d had other plans for me. As I was leaving the grocery store. I started to walk to the train, thinking I might go to Jews for Jesus. As I was walking to the train. I hear my name. My friend from my Messiah's Lighthouse group comes running up to me and grabs hold of me. She was tearing up. Turns out her GP, who's practice is near my house. He saw something on an EKG and sent her to her Cardiolgist right away. She was not in good shape, emotionally speaking. So, long story short. I am sure that G-d wanted me to meet up with her. And to go with her to the doctor. THANK G-D!!! She was not having a heart attack. Her Cardiologist sent her for more tests today. And hopefully they will have good news.

NOW HERE'S THE INTERESTING PART.....

So that's the story. A miracle meeting. Meant to be...? I leave the question mark because on thought just came to mind as I share this. Was my meeting my friend, a person whom I love as a dear friend and sister in the LORD, meant to be? Or was G-d testing me to see wether I would go to Jew's for Jesus, which was my plan, for another purpose. To serve him or something like that. This was about a dear friend in need. And was I neglecting G-d in the process? Was I doing the right thing on this?

I honestly believe you were where God wanted you to be and his purpose was fulfilled. You weren't neglecting God, you were being his hands.

All things work according to the LORD's plan.

...was I neglecting G-d in the process? Was I doing the right thing on this?

Mat 25:34-40

The shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, yet blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

For I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

Naked, and ye clothed me. I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

The shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and come unto thee?

And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

You served God directly by your love and care for your sister.

In Christ,

Eric

John 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

John 15:17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.

Romans 12:10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;

Romans 13:8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

Thessalonians 3:12 And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:

1Peter 1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

1John 3:11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

1John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

I think you did the right thing...I think the Lord thinks so , too.

On more thought occurred to me since you mentioned you had intended to be at a Christian meeting instead.

Mat 12:10

And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.

And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?

How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.

I personally thank you for being their for our sister to "pull her out of the pit she had fallen into" even though you had thought to go worship God. The truth is...you did worship Him in what you did. More so, perhaps, than if you had go to J4J.

In Christ,

Eric

Wow Eric. I never thought of that!! Thanks.

[Ovedya]

A divine appointment if I had ever seen one.

[nebula]

To serve a brother and sister in the Lord is to serve Christ.

You did the right thing.

How many times was Jesus interupted from His prayer times to minister to those who sought Him? Yet, He ministered. Think of that.
