Sunny meets an Angel

God gave me the opportunity to share Jesus and meet and fellowship with a homeless brother for the first time this morning.

주님이 내게 보내주신 #1 노숙자...엔젤
​
We are in San Pedro at the beach and found a great place yesterday. This morning very early, we arrived and set up our place for the day, right on the water. We did QT and prayed and then tried to make breakfast. Our travel burner wouldn't light and then a kind lifeguard came over to let us know we could not have fire in this area and recommended we move to another location. We walked over and found a spot near a fire pit and noticed a young man, alone, who seemed to be drunk. 

어제부터 돌아다니며 명단자리를 고른후 ....새벽부터 부지런히 도착 자리잡고  불을땐후 기쁜 마음으로 큐티하는중....라이프 가드가 들려서 하는말...."이곳에선 불을 땔수 없으니 더많은사람들이 도착하기전 불때는곳으로 이동을 추천...?" 불이냐.... 경치냐.... 고민하다

After deciding to stay at our spot, I wanted to build a fire to prepare our meal. When I started the fire, no one was around except this boy, so I asked him if he would watch our fire and table. Then he asked me, "Do you have any food?" and I asked him, "Do you know God?" Do you believe in Jesus?" and he said yes. Then I knew that God had stopped our plans this morning so that I could feed this boy and spend time with one on one with a homeless person, my first time.

결국 불을 포기하고 버너를 꺼내켜보니 불통....결국 나무를 들고  건너편에서 불을핀후...누워있던 노숙자에게....
can you watch the fire?
했더니... 음식있어요? 하고 묻는다. 

I gathered the food and returned back to the firepit.   As I was preparing the meal, I asked him questions:
What is your name? Angel.  Where are you from? Indonesia.   Where is your family? I don't know  Do you know GOD? Yes.  Do you know Jesus? Yes.  Do you believe Jesus is our savior? Yes.  

아~~~ 이사람을 먹이려고 나를이곳으로 부르셨다는것을 깨닳은후 텐트로 돌아와 음식들을준비.. 베이컨.. 계란 ...꽃등심..을 구워주며 물었다..
What is your name?angel..
Where are you from? Indonesia 
Where is your family? I dont know 
Do you know GOD?yes
Do you know Jesus? Yes
Do you believe Jesus is our savior? Yes

​As he ate, I asked him to share more about his life. He is 24 years old and came to the US at age 7. He has a younger sister but doesn't know where she is. His mother and sister were both repeatedly raped, his mother as many as 120 times and "I am one of those son", he said. He was mumbling and laughing as he told his story, as if he didn't want to remember. I asked him, "Do you live like this because you're hurt? Because you want to give up because of those hard feelings?" and he nodded. "Even though many people you trusted have let you down, whatever you have gone through, Jesus has been here and He loves you. He sent me to hear your story and serve you a wonderful breakfast."

Angel began to cry. I began to cry too.  

7살에 인도네지아에서 이민온 24살 
엔젤은 여동생이 있다는걸 기억하지만어릴때 헤어졌다고했다...그는  어머니가 항상 남자들에게 강간당하는모습을 보며 자라왔으며 자신도 그중에 임신해서 태어난 사람이라말한다...엔젤.... 
네가 이런삶을 선택한건 세상사림들에게받은 상처때문이지??? 
그는 끄덕인다...그런데... 그런너를 주님이 사랑하셔서 십자가에 목박혀죽으시고 오늘도 나를통해 주님의사랑을 전해주길 원하셔......오늘아침 이 식사는 주님이 네게 전하는 사랑이야.

Through our tears as he continued eating, a wonderful meal of bacon, steak and eggs, we talked about the bible and he began saying Amen. I also reminded him, "You believe in Jesus so you know in this life you may be homeless, but you know where you are going. Many people who live like you don't know where they are going, so you need to talk about God & Jesus to those people. Talking and sharing about God can start your healing for your wounded heart and your life will start to feel renewed the more you share with others."  After he finished and our tears finally stopped, he told me he would go to the bathroom and wash up. He left and I didn't see him again.

지금 네 환경이 노숙자이지만 그래고 너는 예수님을 알고 믿지만 네주위에 있는 많은노숙자들은 주님을 모르고 세상을 따나는 사람들 너도 많이 봤지?  너는그들에게 주님을 전해봐....그러면 .너의상처도 치료되고 새로운 삶이 시작될꺼야.
혼을 뺏긴듯이 복음을 전하는데...
그가 한없이 운다...
나도 같이울었다....
그리고  엔젤이...."화장실다녀올께요...
