A Care Giver and a "Good Guy" Come to Christ

This Wednesday we had an amazing time doing the Gospel Guy.  It was great to have our summer High School interns out with us.  Seeing them be challenged to do evangelism and actually being able to be there with them to help and guide them, and even learn from them is a lot of fun.  One lady I spoke to was probably the nicest person you could ever meet, and the kindest...she has been a caregiver for the elderly for 20 years.  She was actually so good that that actually was her problem.  She believed she would be "good" enough to get to heaven.  I shared the Gospel with her and we spoke for about an hour.  Towards the end of our discussion something clicked, and she realized her goodness was not good enough, and that she needed Christ.  She then gave her life to the Lord.  A few minutes after that, we began to speak to a guy who was very similar in his convictions of the lady we met.  Our conversation dealt with much of the same stuff...our Christs righteousness, our works are like filthy rags type of stuff.  He also gave his life to Christ.  What is amazing about this is the huge encouragement it is to our high school interns.  Actually having them see people come to Christ is a testimony to God's amazing faithfulness, and it definitely spurs them on to be more bold with their witness.
