Polaris Church hosted a Living Christmas Tree (LCT) play. Several of us
attended and it was such a great and well put together play. It was a wonderful
opportunity for me to get to connect with a student 1-1 in order to hopefully
be able to disciple the student. The student I invited is not a believer yet
but that was her second time to the play which she thoroughly enjoyed. Even
though, it was her second time to attend, she was still fascinated by the “intricacy
of the play” and was moved by the story of the prodigal son. On our way back,
we spent quite a great bit talking about the play, what we liked and it was an
opportunity for me to ask her if there was anything she did not understand.
What intrigued me the most is that the student said she was “greatly reminded
of how much God loves her” and so many times she sees herself as“ a prodigal
daughter but God still loves her unconditionally”. I was touched by her honest comment
and I asked her if she had heard and/or read the story of the prodigal son and
her reply was “I am actually studying the book of Luke and I just read Luke 15
not too long ago”. Turns out the student “tries to read her bible on a daily
basis because she find comfort in the word of God” she added. I shared with her
my personal story which she found encouraging and I am hoping to have more
opportunities to meet & connect with this student.
Last but not least, I was
also personally reminded of God’s unconditional love to all HIS children. I do
not have to perform to earn God’s love, He loves me as I am. I thought the cast
did an incredible job. The last scene where everyone was dressed in white
painted a picture of heaven when we will be with Jesus singing, dancing and
praising His name.
