Praying to be a witness
read by Zoe Cochran.

For you to be his witness, telling
everyone what you have seen and

heard acts chapter 22, verse 15.

A colleague invited me to attend a
baby shower for a Muslim woman, said

literature, evangelist, exhibit MedU.

I prayed for the opportunity to be able
to witness to someone at that party.

Her prayers were answered when a
woman approached her at the party

and said, you're a Christian, right?

Auxiliary began to share her beliefs
with this woman who then asked her why

there were so many different churches.

I shared what I knew and then invited
her to come with me to my car so

that I could give her a copy of the
great controversy said, auxiliary.

I told her that it had more information
about the different churches.

Unfortunately.

Zulia couldn't find any copies of
the great controversy in her car.

She apologized and gave the woman a
copy of the desire of ages instead.

The woman seemed appreciative.

A few weeks later, I received a few copies
of the great controversy and thought of

giving this woman one set of auxiliary.

I've visited her office to find out how
she was going with the desire of ages.

She pulled out a notepad and showed
me the notes, which she had written

that she was reading the book.

She'd been reading it daily
and they'd already finished the

book, my heart, praise the Lord.

And I left her with a copy
of the great controversy.

Please keep this woman in your prayers
as she continues to discover new truths.
