2 Michaels, Falling Whistles and Coffee
My day started hanging out with Michael for breakfast. We talked about a ministry that his friend started called Falling Whistles (full website coming soon). It is a ministry, much like Invisible Children, yet unique in it's strategy. We talked about Jesus, the Book of Hebrews and relationships. My generation is not afraid to charge hell with a water pistol....I love it!
Then......
As I was walking to the car, I met a young man named Michael that was released from jail the night before and was looking for a ride to Pensacola, Florida. After I had him take his knife out of his pocket and zip it up, we got in the car and went shopping. Shopping for some snacks as I prepared to drop him off on the side of I-385 S so that he could catch his next ride. The journey took over an hour. We prayed, laughed, set goals, and talked about Jesus.
God not only moved on my heart concerning the murder of children in Africa from rebel military groups with the Falling Whistle story, He then gave me a tangible opportunity to minister to a man named Michael. What a great way to start a Thursday.
good stuff homie!
