I glanced at a jade pendant dangling about two feet from my face.
“Your necklace is interesting,” I said as Lindsay tied a latex strap around my arm.
“It is a Japanese good luck charm,” Lindsay said, as she gently tapped my vein.
I found out within a few minutes that this young phlebotomist was a Buddhist.
“That’s obviously your choice,” I commented, looking at her pale skin and blue eyes. “Why did you choose Buddhism?”
“I like the way they respect all of life. That’s also why I went into this work.”
I commended her for wanting to help people and then asked, “Well, did you know that Christianity also teaches us to take care of the earth?”
No,” Lindsay admitted.
I encouraged Lindsay to go to my blog site to watch a YouTube presentation of the Good News. I wrote down the blog address on a piece of paper and then asked, “Will you take some time to investigate what Christianity really is?”
Lindsay assured me that she would.
I left the clinic rejoicing for God’s work in Lindsay’s life.
