Evangelism

I've volunteered for another outreach with my synagogue. On Thanksgiving day we will be at the parade in Detroit handing out pamphlets and talking to people. It will likely be very cold but we won't be out past 2pm. I'm excited about it. My first experience with street evangelism at the Arts, Beats, and Eats festival was over all very good, aside from minor incidents. I want to reach as many people as I can. Sometimes God uses us this way for other reasons too. When rabbi Loren and Martha were doing the Behold Your God outreach with Jews for Jesus in New York City, Martha walked up to a guy sitting on a bench in the park and started talking to him. Turns out, this man was about to go home and commit suicide, and was just in the park to say his last goodbye to life. Her caring and approaching him about Yeshua Messiah right at that moment changed his mind. So anyway, now that I'm a full member of the synagogue, I want to do this. For the first time in my life I feel like I really belong somewhere.. that I'm right exactly where God wants me to be. And that's a wonderful feeling. My life is not perfect, but whose is? All I know is that I have an inner peace knowing that God is at work in my life, and I am at work for Him. I have faith that what He promised is true. I believe and in my belief I have eternal life. And I don't mean eternal life on this fallen earth like some vampire from an Anne Rice novel. Eternal life in His presence.. in Paradise. People who think Heaven would be boring are fooling themselves... "Neither eye has seen nor ear has heard the wonders that God has in store for us." There can't be boredom in Heaven or it wouldn't be Heaven!
