The hitchhicking Buddhist

Something amazing happened Friday. I got off work early. On my way home there was a young guy, but older then me, hitchhiking in Lindsy. I drove by thinking "I am so hungry, I just want to get home". Half a mile later I felt so convicted that I had to turn around and pick him up. He had some large insulated bags that he put in the back. I asked him "whats in the bags"? He replied "it's cider from a Buddhist temple in Tibet that a friend had brought back for me. One thing led to another and I found out that he was a hardcore Buddhist that lived in a place in peterborough just for Buddhist. He asked me what I believed and I told him about Jesus. I was able to compare a lot of what he believes with what I believe. As I began to share about the holy spirit and releasing heaven on earth he turned to me and said " the left side of my body is starting to tingle. What is that"? I told him that it was the holy spirit. I asked if I could release it over him and he reluctantly said yes. As soon as I touched his shoulder he totally got wacked! We were so drunk in the spirit I had to pull over! I had a few words of knowledge over him and he started praising the name of Jesus!!! We spent a few minutes more soaking and then I dropped him off. He wanted my number so he could learn more about this Jesus. As he left he said "you have just made my week... no you have just made my whole year"!

As my pastor said to me, "Its not about us versus them. Jesus can save Buddhist, Muslims, and even Christians. He loves us all the same".

Yah God!
