After the great night at church.co.uk I was confronted full in the face with what Shane had been talking about. I arrived at Liverpool St Station and was starving! So I made my way up to McDonalds and there she was sitting just out of the rain at the front door.
Somehow money didn't seem enough, what else could I give her, I racked my brain. Instead I asked her if I could buy her some food, she had just eaten no doubt someone else's generosity. I had my wallet in my hand now and I dug around for some change. I gave her the money but it still didn't seem enough. How could I demonstrate Jesus to her?... I asked if there was anything else I could do and she replied no, someone else came then and gave her some money and I just said take care as I walked inside to get my burger!
Was it enough, is there more I could have done? I'm still not convinced that I did the right thing. I probably won't see her again, in fact I'm sure I won't, but did I do enough. Was it enough for her to see Jesus. Am I hoping for to much, did I falter at the first challenge.
This gospel is dangerous, it is in your face, how much of Jesus' did she see, how much good news was there?
