Coffee Shop Conversations

By: Debbie Kitterman

 

I have a confession.

 

I’m a people watcher.

 

Yes, it’s true. I love to just sit in a coffee shop or restaurant and observe people.  It’s fun, it’s intriguing and eye-opening.

 

Not too long ago, I was sitting in a coffee shop visiting with my friend. We were discussing ministry when a young woman in her twenties approached us.  She had stopped by to say hi and get a hug from my friend.  I recognized her from a few months before when she had stopped by our table, but I didn’t know her name.

 

I watched as they chit-chatted with one another and when she was about to leave, I stopped her and said, “Something about you has changed since I saw you last.  I know you got your hair cut, but it’s more like there is a lightness and a joy in you that wasn’t there the last time we saw you.”

 

She laughed, tilted her head and said, “what?”

 

I went on to explain that the last time she had stopped by our table just a few months before, she was carrying a burden and felt weighed down by life. However, today there was something different about her… something had changed.  She had decided to stop running and let God in.

 

Wide eyed she looked at me and said, “How did you know that?  I just told God the other day that I was tired of doing it my way and being rebellious. That I was giving up and would let Him have the reigns of my life.” She went on to tell me that she didn’t like to relinquish control to anyone, let alone God.”

 

I listened as she went on to describe some rather rebellious behavior for a believer which she had just participated in a few nights before.  She said it was that night, she decided she was tired of doing it her way, that she might as well try it God’s way.  But she confessed she wasn’t very good at trusting God and she was a little worried about this new found trust.

 

I shared a few more things with her that encouraged her in the direction she was already stepping out in.  She said goodbye to my friend and then went on her way, with a bounce in her step.

 

As soon as she was gone, my friend leaned in across the table and …….

This is why I wrote the book, The Gift of Prophetic Encouragement.  I want people to recognize that God is real, and He wants authentic relationship with us, which involves a two-way conversation. I believe as Christ followers we need to follow in the footsteps of Jesus.  We need to follow His example and speak words of hope, life, and encouragement to others.  Jesus clearly modeled and said in Scripture that He only did what the Father showed Him to do and He only said what the Father told Him to say (see – John 5:19;8:28;10:27; 12:49-50).

 

God is speaking all the time, we just need to learn to tune into His voice.  He wants to raise up an army of believers who will release hope, strength, comfort, encouragement and speak life into others. Will you link arms with others and join His army of prophetic encouragers today?
