My Friend Net

Net is a young woman that I have had the privilege of sharing my life with. I met her in my 2nd English class; she went out to eat with me and 3 other students. When we got back that night I was talking to P’ Dream and told her that I really thought God was going to do something huge with this girl. And 5 weeks later we are closer than ever. I never would have thought I would grow this close to someone I just met but it has been so incredible how God has used our time together wisely.
Alicia and I have been to lunch with her on campus every week and today was our last lunch with her! It definitely is not our last time to see her though because we already have plans to see Harry Potter 7 together with some other Thai friends on Thursday. She is also going to try and go to see a Waterfall with us on Sunday. God has really blessed me with this relationship. Net is a wonderful girl and is searching for something. Net doesn’t know what she’s looking for but she’s not satisfied with what she knows about Buddha.
Today we had the chance to really witness to her. Together, Alicia and I broke down the gospel and shared with her about Jesus and who God really is. Before we shared we asked her what she knew about God and Jesus. She told us that, “God gave love and helped many people. He keeps people healthy. He loves every people. He teach people to make good things.” We were excited that she had heard good things about God so sharing the gospel was really incredible but it was definitely overwhelming. It was hard for her to really understand but I know that God will stir in her heart when the time is right!
I am just so thankful that God gave us the opportunity to witness to her and to continue this friendship. Net and I are already friends on Skype and we plan on continuing our friendship long after I head back to Texas! Thank you God for this relationship and I ask you all please keep praying for her! Net is very special to me and she needs prayer for her heart to be open to accepting the Gospel and wanting to know Jesus personally!
