Surprise Me God - Brad George

Well yesterday I had a Jesus surprise me.

I have been praying Jesus surprise me and.....

I am on jury duty this week and got selected to be interviewed for a case during the selection process. We were asked a number of questions by the judge, you know, like our age, occupation, and stuff like that. The judge asked me about my hobbies and groups I belonged to. The first thing that came to my mind was the Misfits group that I have attended 2 times. I actually am involved in a couple other groups for a few years, yet this is the only one I mentioned.

Now the attorneys start to ask questions of the prospective jurors.

It wasn't too long and the defending attorney says, "Mr George, tell me about this Misfit group." I went on to explain as best I can about the group. I told them we study Bible verses and talk about how they pertain to our lives. I followed it up by saying "and we worship our LORD and savior Jesus Christ."

The attorney for some reason heard everything accept worshiping our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. So I repeated myself very loud, "WE WORSHIP OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST." You could hear a pin drop. It didn't bother me one bit. As I looked around the courtroom there was a lot of wide eyes, except the gentleman right next to me. He was of African descent and had a HUGE smile on his face and was shaking his head up and down in approval.

Maybe to most Christians this would not be a big deal but Jesus surprised me yesterday.
