Car Shows are a favorite events for the Staff at SOS. One of the big church car shows is in the little sleepy town of Dover, FL. Actually just a mile or two from our headquarters.
Even though this event is only minutes from our property we have been unable to attend one of the car shows previously because of scheduling conflicts. However, we finally connected and what a surprise, over 300 old cars were registered and all food and activities are free.
As we sat waiting and praying for people to check out the “3 Things God Can Not Do” an older gentleman stopped by to see what was going on. His vintage truck was parked right behind our booth, but we did not know that at the time. He must have been listening as we presented the Gospel to several others before he came to see for himself.
He said he was not 100% sure he was going to Heaven but would like to be.
As he came back to the soul winners table, he was so humble as he told the soul winner he wanted to be saved.
As she presented the ABC’s of salvation to Tommy, tears rolled down his cheeks. It was a tremendous blessing to hear Tommy pray and invite Jesus to be his Savior.
He said, “I have just been diagnosed with lung cancer.” As his tears continued to flow, the soul winner felt led to call others to gather round and pray for him.
Tommy left that booth knowing for sure he is going to Heaven. What a blessing that we can know.
Sometimes God uses a diagnosis of a disease to get our attention and we are so thankful that God used SOS to assure this man of his eternal home in Heaven. Also, to give peace in time of trials. What a wonderful Savior.
1John 5:13
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
