#Transforming_Encounter

Dear Diary,

I came across this story and it got me thinking deeply and loud.

"Years ago a farmer from the interior of China had come to a mission compound where a doctor had removed the cataracts from his eyes. A few days after the farmer left, the doctor looked out his window and noticed the same man holding the end of a long rope. In single file behind him, holding to the rope, were several dozen blind Chinese whom the farmer had rounded up and led for miles to the doctor who had worked “miracles” on his eyes. Because his sight had been restored, he wanted others to experience the same thing!"

Let me use this story to illustrate a life changing encounter with Jesus. The most important thing that can happen to a person is to encounter Jesus, who loves us, who gave His life for us and to save us. An encounter with Jesus reveals the truth about Jesus and ourselves; His grace and our spiritual need; changes our life's purpose; when we encounter Him we exhibit transformed lives; we become His witnesses and so many other great things.

Show me a man or woman who has ever encountered Jesus and remained the same! Certainly no one encounters Jesus and remains the same. I am a living testimony, #Yesu_Amenifanya_Ningare.
Consider the Samaritan woman, Mary Magdalene, Simon Peter, Nathaniel, Matthew the tax collector, the woman with an issue of blood for 12yrs, Blind Batimaeus e.t.c are perfect examples of the transforming encounter with Jesus.

Have you had an encounter with Jesus?

Regards,
NzakuNashipae
