Some of you may know that I'm trying to help 'convert' so to speak four important people in my life into Christianity. The first one, the one I told you mocked me before and taken the mick out of my cross is the one I'm going to tell you about...

Today I bottled up the courage and taken a giant leap, and dived right into a deep and meaningful conversation with him, his name is Harry. He seemed completely interested in this subject of salvation!! He was asking questions all night til we departed from each other, and I told him all about (to the best of my knowledge) heaven and hell, and that he was hell bound etc. I also told him about the significance of Jesus' death for us, I even cried when speaking about that part, and guess what.. he cried with me! I was SO touched, sooooo proud of him! So happy for him! He said he was considering praying to God tonight and asking for salvation and forgiveness!

What joyous news! Now this is where you come in... he mentioned that his love for his earthly family would cause him to rather be in hell for eternity with them there all suffering together than to be in heaven for a day without them.... what can I say to that?! I'm not a brilliant christian, I'm still growing.. eventually he mentioned that would be given a choice of his whole family being in heaven or hell he answered heaven. I told him the good news that his whole family could be in heaven! Good news indeed brethren!

I fear that if when we, or me alone, eventually gets round to telling his family the good news of salvation, that, if they reject it, he would follow in their footsteps and we'd be back to square one again. PLEASE PRAY!! Im desperate for him to come into relationship with Jesus! I desire that so badly! How awful it would be to know that he would be in hell... I know Ive ranted on, so please pray for me. Thanks.:love:
 
Father I pray that Harry would indeed give his life and heart over to You. Open his spiritual eyes and ears to the truth that You are the only way, the truth and the life and no one comes to the Father except through His Son. I pray that he will be able to accept You and then his family will see a new person with You shining through him that they will also want to have Jesus in their hearts too and the whole family get saved. Thank you that the seeds have already been planted in Harry in Jesus' name amen.

You are the one who brings in the harvest Jesus. Hallelujah. Your Word never returns void.
 
Will be praying for your friend, if he converts encourage him to read the new testament and learn some of the word, so it can take root in him.

God bless
 
GHooooST,

I understand your situation. I recommend that you tell your friend that his family can also go to Heaven. Tell him to pray to God and ask Him for help.

I encourage you to pray with your friend whenever you get the chance. It's really important. He needs your help...he is new to this...so you have to continue to share with him what you know. Invite him to church even.

Dear Lord -- I thank and praise your name for brother GHooooST Lord. Thank you for his courage and determination in saving his friends soul Lord. I pray that you will continue to speak through my brother so he can help Harry get to know you Lord.

I also pray for Harry's family Father. Please help Harry realize that his family can also go to heaven Lord and be with you for eternity. Please open the doors and give Harry and GHooooST many opportunities to minister to Harry's family. I pray that you give them boldness, courage, and your wisdom Father.

I thank you and praise your name Lord. Amen.
