I would like to share the conversation with the Uber driver when Serena, Hannah, Mei and I rode to the airport Saturday morning. The driver's name is Ibrahim, an Egyptian who is in Paris to make some money while his wife and three children, two girls age 9 and 7, and 6 month old son, are in Egypt. His English is adequate for simple conversations but when I commented on his being named after our father of faith Abraham, he did not understand the word "faith". He is a Muslim, but several of his neighbors in Paris are Christians. We talked quite a bit about the commonality of our beliefs. He thinks Jesus did not die, because how could God die, but believes Jesus is coming back and we will all receive our reward from Isa (Jesus) when He comes back. He said he likes his Christian neighbors, because they are honest and hard working. He gratefully appreciated our prayer of blessing for him, his family, and his future. Remember Ibrahim, may his Christian neighbors share the true gospel with him.
As I write this Sunday afternoon (LA time), David and Anne, Ting-Hou and Alice, Shirley and Rebecca (Xiao Hong) are on the plane back to LA. Anne (Lai Fei), Monica, Shi-Min and Debbie are vacationing in Paris for 3 more days. Pray for God to give them divine appointments as they act like tourists.
