praise & pray for Yosuke (JAP)

- met today on the bus, by God's mercy! otherwise would've been selfishly content to choose 'the easy way out' & sit & read a book by myself. he came & sat next to me :)
accident? coincidence?
. . . or DIVINE APPOINTMENT?! :) <-- pick me!! pick me!! PICK ME!!
mental note: always sit on the bus in a way that leaves the seat next to me available for Papa to fill :")
easy access to we got talking, in the course of which i got to share about my accident & he revealed his mother & grandmother in Tokyo were Christian & often told him about his need to believe in Jesus :)
the bus trip was short, too short to delve into a full-gospel presentation, but i challenged his thought that "I'm too young to think about death" with the idea it'd be good for him to go walking through a cemetery & see how many young people died at his age (20) .. and his "not liking to think about it" is only going to do more harm than good ... PLEASE PRAY FOR HIM!
:D PRAISE God for godly mothers & grandmothers! :D - surely i am a blessed recipient of a godly heritage too :)

*PRAY*
* work through our sisters (his mother + grandma) + other brothers & sisters placed strategically in his life to keep challenging him with the person & claims of Christ who is mighty to save from sin, death, self & satan!
* * we'd see Yosuke + many Japanese in heaven worshiping The Lamb because He's Worthy!!
