Well Pastor Reuben was sharing this amazing story:
About 10 years ago at an outreach, they had met this one couple, prayed for them, and the wife had come to church.
Last month, while at another outreach, they had met a teenage girl and were picking her up for church. The mom came running out of her house and wanted Pastor Reuben to come inside she wanted to show him something.
And there on her mantle of her house was a picture of Pastor Reuben and Nora they had taken with them 10 years prior.
The point is that Even though there was no way to tell that this lady was holding onto a shred of Hope, and it was symbolized by a small picture on her mantle of Pastor Reuben and Nora, this lady was praying, and for them to pick up her daughter it was an answer to prayer.
Many times we see with our human eyes only a small crowd at an outreach, so we dismiss it as ineffective.
However Gods view is different, and Gods word does not return void, without accomplishing his purpose.
Is it all worth it for one soul? Even though on this side of eternity we will never know who has been touched by an outreach?
