AKA 'Time for The Author' AKA ' (8) I'm coming back to the heart of writing... (8)'... Many things happened this week that do give me inspiration from God that I really need to pick up the pace on my book writing, I may not have enough time to cover them all right now, especially since I'll be at my workplace for 9 hours later, but I might add more to this entry later on.
Recently, when I celebrated my friend's Birthday with him, God worked something 'interesting' through my decision not to continue to wear down the expensive tires on mom's vehicle due to the worn front suspension components. Rear suspension is also leaking and I've no idea about that no-name tire on the back, but anyhow I'm getting off topic. So while I was waiting for the bus, I over heard some of the discussion between two other individuals and they started talking about people killing other people, particularly in the context of Jihad so I decided to participate a bit and mention also how the people who are participating in 'holy war' do seem to perceive that they are indeed doing 'the right thing'. The cool thing that happened was me and the guy who didn't hop onto the other bus started to get into a conversation as we were waiting for the express bus to square one. And at first we were just exchanging ideas about God in general. Then about 30 seconds in for me, I realized this person was looking to engage me in a conversation about Jesus. At first I was contemplating just telling him that I'm a Christ follower to 'cut to the chase', but then I decided maybe it would be more fruitful for me to learn about how other people approach this conversation instead and 'just go with it'. I ended up discovering his heart for the gospel and evangelism and that he also used to attend the same UC&Seminary as me in the past and we ended up having a pretty cool and fruitful conversation. One thing that I will highlight is that we talked about Bruxy's message from last Sunday and how he liked the story, but also I pointed out that though we have some similarities (in our backgrounds), I also come from a slightly different perspective because "I'm not married yet" [Urbana Single in Missions Workshop]
Actually, the age my friend who was celebrating his birthday turns on Sunday, it goes with my original title of the book, but I happen to find if I were title my book as the same title as this blog entry, it just seems to have more intrigue to it. Also I recognize some incidental irony that is not just KB and BB's 'wedding anniversary', but that 'a K' also shares a birthday with 'the allegorical RacheL' [http://life-of-agent-k.blogspot.ca/2008/12/dark-k.html , http://life-of-agent-k.blogspot.com/2018/05/time-to-wrap-this-up-sheep.html]...
