Everlasting hope

I have never been a bold witness to those around me who aren't Christians. Now, I am presented with the perfect opportunity to do so at my work. My boss (not my direct supervisor) has cancer and probably doesn't have long to live. He's not a Christian, and I need to share the gospel with him. I also want to present it to my coworkers as well, and as his posting on his website today talked about priorities and the high possibility of losing the fight against cancer, I have a means of letting him and my coworkers know about the importance of eternal life. I would appreciate your prayers.

Carrie, I just read something today and I thought of you.

The author, commenting on Pharaoh's hardened heart during God's exodus miracles, says:

"As the gospel is shared, some welcome its good news while others reject it. Just as the sun melts wax and hardens clay, so the light of revelation melts open hearts while causing closed hearts to harden." (Every Miracle in the Bible, Larry Richards)

Wow, it really is an amazing opportunity. You are a living testimony of the fruits of the Spirit, Carrie. You're already touching lives on a daily basis...Now you get to witness verbally! You're in my prayers.
