"Uh-huh....okay, sounds good!" Grayson hung up the phone and told us about John*, a man who was formerly SDA and now wants to study again.

John used to attend a local SDA church, but has since stopped attending. However, he has lately been feeling a need and desire to re-kindle his relationship with God. Grayson & April studied with him yesterday, and they spent over two hours answering his many questions, ranging from the Mark of the Beast to God's love in prophecy. Before they left, John asked for Grayson's email. "I want to be able to send you my questions!" He also asked for a ride to our weekly prayer meetings, as well as to the upcoming evangelistic series.

I love studying with Aunty Savannah*--she has such a love and fervor for the Lord! Each time I go to study with her, another member of her family joins us. It is such a blessing--there are currently three of us studying, and I pray it will grow to a larger group!

We were studying Daniel 2 when her son came to drop off his son. He heard us studying, and sat down so he could listen. When he left, he said that he didn't have time to eat before work. "But it's okay," he said, "because my soul has been spiritually fed."

I am so thankful that God has allowed us to be co-workers with Him. I have realized more and more that I am simply "one beggar telling another beggar where to find bread." It reminds me of this quote that I read this morning: 

"Our work has been marked out for us by our heavenly Father. We are to take our Bibles, and go forth to warn the world. We are to be God's helping hands in saving souls,--channels through which His love is day by day to flow to the perishing."--Testimonies, vol. 9, p. 150.
