Sharing more than a table

Sharing more than a table

Oct 9, 2015 | Posted by Nick & Vetti | Be a Witness, Encouragement, Vetti's Blog |

Sharing more than a table

After finishing my morning at Playgroup, I headed off to the shops, marking time until my 2.30 appointment. I decided to have lunch there, and shared a table with someone else. I really wanted to ignore the little old woman, ‘tick the box’ on my list of things to do, and return a phone call. But I also felt I should talk to the lady.

I knew that gnawing feeling was God, I’ve felt it before. So I start chatting to the well-groomed and articulate 82-year-old about her ailments. I identified with her problems, having a few myself.

“It really sucks getting old, eh?” That was probably politically incorrect, but she heard my heart.

I think she was polite and ignored this. My heart wanted her to get better, not just for now, but forever, she was so sweet. Immediately, I thought about heaven and how we would have perfect bodies there.

I ask her whether she is a child of God, cause when you are in heaven your bodies are perfect. She wasn’t, I kept going, why stop there? I didn’t want her to think that it wasn’t about Jesus.

I mentioned how you need to know him, “and that’s all I have to say about the matter,” I kept my preaching to a minimum, I didn’t want to overwhelm her.

I’m not sure whether she really heard me, but we chatted for a little while longer about her family. However, my appointment was fast approaching and I needed to go. But just before I do….

I asked her, what her name was, as I got up and grabbed her frail little hand.

“Kathy”, she says.

“Kathy, I am going to pray for you, cause I want you to see you again, in heaven, with a perfect body. Remember Jesus,” I held back the tears, I was touched by her beautiful glistening eyes.

Off I trotted, bumping into a Playgroup mum, and made ‘a date’ to chat with her for the following week.

Most times I’m not so bold at Playgroup, you see, I get to chat with them every week. But this lady, she was teetering on the edge of eternity, I thought I’d give her a ‘push’ in the right direction. Pretty sure that’s why God had me there.

About Nick & Vetti

After 4 years of dating, Nick finally popped the question at Cronulla beach. Vetti was so pumped she took off, running towards the car. Nick yells out, "Where are you going?" She said,"I'm going to tell my friends." He says, "That's a yes then?" Over 30 years later, Vetti & Nick still love telling people good news. And it's the third wheel in their marriage they can't stop banging on about, his name's Jesus!

Okay this morning out there was gnarly - not gunna Okay this morning out there was gnarly - not gunna lie. But the amount of children getting driven to school is amazing. Is there no public transport? Heaven forbid your child may get a few drops of rain on them- this is called resilience training parents. They will survive, they will grow stronger, they will achieve. So while you’re sending your child to school to get an education; maybe the journey there is giving them courage, strength and faith. Snaps for the 7 kids I saw on their bikes!! #dontbeasnowflake #begoneteacups
