HE STILL CHANGES LIVES

Man I just got blown away!!! One of my college buddies wanted to befriend me on Facebook. Now I am not going to give you any of the gory details about my friend, I will call him Ed (fictitious name), but just let it be said that Ed is the last person who I ever dreamed would become a radical Jesus follower. Ed was one of the smartest guys in our class, but he lived on the wild side. He was a party animal, no he was more than that. Ed was a party lizard! Ed and I were roommates for a semester and his exploits were known far and wide. But over the years as Ed journeyed through life God got a hold of Ed's life and spiritually changed him, and Ed became a radical Jesus follower. In fact Ed just finished serving a multi-year term as an Elder in his church. And as Ed puts it "To get to that point, you KNOW it wasn't my own strength!" And the coolest thing is that if God can change Ed he can change you too!
