God works

So last night I was sitting on my bed doing some online Spanish homework while my roommate and two of her sorority sisters were pregaming before a bowling event (bad combination if you ask me..ha) They still weren’t gone by the time I was getting ready to go to Bible study, so I said something along the lines of “Bye guys, I’m going to go to Bible study now.” I said it because a. come on, look at the contrast in Monday night events b. it was true. One of the girls asked if it was fun and as I left, they were talking about there obsolete (or nearly) church attendance since they started college.

Just a few minutes ago, my roommate told me that I really inspired one of the girls to go to church and they were planning on going this weekend.  Even though I certainly was not acting like Jesus when I made that sassy comment, God turned it into something beautiful.

I feel like that’s probably not how these things are supposed to work—just go around making not nice comments and hoping they’re doing something good—but in this instance, it was certainly God’s work.
