Guard made a Whole Hearted Decision

Ethiopia, Tuesday November 18th 2008

Samuel and Daniel

Our new guard, the former police officer Daniel, started asking questions about Jesus already at the job interview.
-I want what you have, he said.
Five months before a former colleague had witnessed to Daniel about Jesus and he decided to be saved. Sadly other things were also pulling at him; the local drug chat, alcohol and his work took up most of his time.

Daniel says it is not a coincidence that he came to the job interview, it must have been God. On his first shift, the day after the interview, he made a new decision to follow Jesus, this time with all his heart.
A few days later he was baptized and received the baptism in the Holy Spirit.
- I feel I've gotten my life in order and I just want to get to know God more and more. I want to do what God wants me to do, and go where He wants me to go, Daniel says with a big smile.
