Divine Appointments
From the East Asia Newsletter

Cindy, a young American college student, sat in her hotel room in southern China talking with two students about Jesus. After having tried for days to speak to them privately, she was glad to finally have the opportunity. She had just started to tell about His crucifixion and resurrection when her teammate walked in with two more students. Intent on continuing her witness, she thought to herself, "Why did they have to come?" Then as she continued, another teammate entered the room accompanied by two more friends. Now she had two teammates and six Chinese students crowded around her bed! By the end of the night, one of the students had decided to ask Christ into her heart, and by the end of the week, three of the six had received Christ. She no longer questioned why they had suddenly appeared in her room that night.
