One Saturday morning, I was cleaning my house while Annabelle had gone to teach at the IBEM (I like to make her happy, I can, if she misses the weekend, spend 3 hours doing the just clean up to see the contentment on his face when he comes back). Suddenly, the Lord spoke distinctly to me saying : "Two Jehovah's Witnesses will knock on the door, tell them that I love them, speak to them of my love." Wow, I admit to being surprised !
About 15 minutes later, two women, Jehovah's Witnesses, were knocking on my door. No sooner had they said hello than I greeted them by saying : "I was waiting for you, come in". They seemed really surprised, so I explained to them what the Lord had told me about them. I began to talk to them about the love of God. What an advantage for us to know and live of the love of our God !
These very religious women did not know his love. It was a simple doctrine for them that they did not live intimately. They were really touched, and the youngest accepted one of my books with joy and amazement. I managed to talk to them about the love of God and my intimacy with him because, precisely, it is a reality in my life. We can say that I knew my "product" !
People are always surprised to see that God is really real to us! Do not hesitate to give them all the benefits of this new life in Christ that God offers them. No religion has the power to touch the human heart, only Christ can act on a person's mind.
Religious people have a thirst that is not watered. They can know and recite verses, suras, or principles, that remains for them only intellectual. They would like to be able to touch God, they would like to hear it, but just as the Egyptians could not hear their gods, having neither eyes to see, nor ears to hear, neither mouth to speak, nor hands to act, their gods did not can do nothing for them.
