Friday I took the DTS students out to do our Crosswalk outreach. One particular story of how this outreached changed a life I felt like sharing. A girl name Rachel the day before the outreach was terrified about having to do it. She literally was so nervous that she began to cry while speaking about it to one of the DTS staff. That evening, we had our monthly Night of Missions at YWAM Salem in which we had speaker come share about being full of faith, foolish, and flexible for the Lord. Rachel was brought to tears during the worship time, and she felt the Lord asking her strongly to participate in Crosswalk the next day. So the next day when we got downtown after I did our briefing, prayer, and put the cross together I asked who would like to go first. Nobody moved. It was obvious the students were battling fear. Then, form the back of the group a hand went up...it was Rachel. She stepped up to the front, and was the first to drag the cross. The Lord taught Rachel a lesson in obedience that day, and I was very proud of her as she took that bold step of faith. What are you doing today that stretches your obedience to Christ?
