In September/ October along with several other Branch County Churches, we studied Hebrews 11. A pamphlet was furnished as a guide to the study. I read that pamphlet at least three times cover to cover, along with Hebrews 11. I have been praying for a friend, who is in foreign country for months, we have become very close and hope to meet in the near future. During the weeks of this program, I began to believe God also wants us to meet. I wore my "Bold Faith bracelet always. Have never taken it off. When the series ended, I noticed many people had removed their bracelets. I have not, wearing it until my friend and I meet. During all the time of the series, I never had the opportunity to boldly relay my faith. A week ago or so, I had a strange lady knock on my door. She was Jehovah Witness, generally I just say no Thank You and close the door, this day as I was standing there I noticed my bracelet...I said no Thank You, I am a born again Christian and I have "Bold Faith". She thanked me and said I am in the area just to let people know they need to read the Bible, but I can tell you do! Today, I was getting coffee, a man was there also, he looked at my bracelet and said, interesting and pointed to it. I said. Yes it's a sign of my faith. He put his wrist on the counter next to mine...he too had a well worn leather bracelet on, that said "Jesus Saves"! As he left, he said have a great day! I responded saying I hoped his day was good also. When I went to pay for my coffee, the girl said that guy paid for your coffee! When I left he was just leaving so I mouthed Thank You! He gave me the thumbs up! I got in my car, looked down at that black band, saying Bold Faith and thought. Praise God nudged me to continue to wear until my friend gets back to the states!
