Just recently my sister-in-law got into a taxi in Manaus. The taxi's are route taxi's, so once the taxi is full you are on your way!
A passenger in the taxi turned to her and said, "Wasn't your family on a boat going from Belem to Manaus about 20 years ago?". She replied yes!
It transpired that this man was impacted by the Romao family, it was the simple action of sharing their food with him that got his attention. This opened the door to my father-in-law speaking with him about Jesus and about Kingdom living.
They never knew until the other day, but that young man gave his life to the Lord because he met people that showed him Jesus!
Today I recieved an email from Bec, who ran the Belfast Marathon to fundraise for the Living Word School. Bec heard about Outreach Amazon back in October from two friends giving a small presentation.
It is wonderful to know and a little mind blowing to think that God can use us in such powerful yet very simple ways to impact and change the course of peoples lives.
One person can make a difference! you or I could be the answer to someones prayers! Lets be sensitive to what God has already planned for us this day, lets not miss being a blessing.
Thanks Bec and all those friends, family and church members who sponsored her.
