We’re back with Kim Stewart, otherwise known as Auntie Kim, and she’s so full of the Lord and so good to have you here with us today. Kim, can you give me two or three examples of impromptu just, just happen experiences when you’re bumping into somebody, it’s one of those God encounters. You just know, God, put somebody in your life that you could encourage, give me, give me. I’m gonna give you the best one first. A lady. Oh no, I guess that’s not the best one

00:32
being did I own lady cab drivers. I own a cab company. I get to minister. That’s where my ministry is. So, I get a lady in. I pick her up from the prison she was in the jail in, I don’t know what is the east jail for overnight, for violence. She’s about 75 years old. Yeah, yeah, 75 year old. She’s about, I’m gonna give her about 95 pounds. And she was violent, yes, she beat up her husband that night, and so they put her in jail for the night. She gets in the cab and she says, I want him dead. And I’m thinking, Oh, God, no. God, help me with what to say to her right now, she wants to pull over at a liquor store, and she wants to get a bottle of vodka, and she tells me that she’s a

01:24
gymnast and she beat her husband up and she’ll beat him up again. And I said, Okay,

01:32
let’s start over again. I tell her. I said, Okay, let’s start over. You just spent the night in jail. Do you really think your father wants you to stay in, who’s my father. I say, let me tell you about Jesus Christ. She stopped. She said, you know, nobody’s ever told me about him.

01:52
We I was supposed to take her to Hemet, which is an hour drive from where we were at I drove her the hour. I sat there with her another hour, and talked about how God loves her. She was so happy that God had showed his favor, and she talked about him, she said, I won’t ever be violent again. I won’t ever do this again to anyone. And I thought, Oh, wow, God, you really use me, because I don’t know where that came from. Because I was like, okay, pushing that feeling every time. At first, it’s like, if I was in the flesh, I would, like, push her out the car. Let’s start. No, I want to talk about this, because she wants to kill somebody, and then they gonna have me. I’m just gonna sit over here, get her as soon as possible. Exactly. I’m gonna drive her fast, you know. But no, God actually use me in that one, you know. Again, God never says, Oops. I mean, everything’s on purpose. Absolutely. There are no chance encounters, no, no. God is always there and always wanting to use it, yeah, to draw people to him. Yes, all the time. It was good. What’s the best part of life for you, for me, just serving Him, being able to meet people, being able to tell someone about His goodness and His grace, and no matter what we’re going through, know that he’s able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we could ever ask or think or even imagine, even imagine, for me to be sitting here.

03:18
You know, for me, I’m like, well, you’re too far away to give you a high five, but high fives, you know, that’s That’s it. I feel it every day, every day, every day. Yes, so honored that we know Him now in these last days. Yes, and can serve him and tell other people about Him, be a part of these last moments in time. Privilege, yes, it is, my privilege to know you. Got it. Your brother and sister. Your my sister, we’re gonna spend an eternity together. We’re gonna hang out. That’s it. We’re gonna hang out, you know, that’s exactly, that’s so awesome

03:50
millions of years, hey remember when we had that conversation back when we were talking about all that stuff. Oaky.That’s it. That’s the exciting point about it. You know, here it’s, we’re just passing through. But while we’re passing through, let’s tell somebody about Him and like sands through the hourglass. I mean, it’s, it’s the sand is running out. Yes, it is. So, we need to be about our Father’s business. Yes, we do that. Those, the words we’ve heard through our lives now are so poignant. Yes, we need to take advantage of every moment, every day, people are lost all around us, our calling is to be salt and light, to change, right? You are an environment change everywhere you go.
