If you read my post on Mission impossible? Then here is a short update...GOD has opened a door for me to share with my dad...it was very intresting how the LORD did it...
I got an intresting book for Christmas(Miroslav Wolf: Exclusion and Embrace) and right there the first few sentences caught my attention...the book is on reconciliation, grace etc... and its starts with „In medias res”(1) , When he was studying GODS love and specially loving our enemies...somone asked him: Would you hug a Chetnik(2) too? Well I have to admit...that question has hit me too...I am trying to be objective(as a missionary in a place like this thats the minimum) with this whole sensitive situation...but hugging someone on any of these two sides, who comitted war crimes...is a hard question.
It broke my pride pretty bad... and I felt like I have to share this with my dad...
First he has listened, but then slowly but surely he started closing up, and not listening to what I said, so I just stopped talking and kept listening him...But then he closed and run away...I prayed after that, that the LORD would minister to his heart...Thats all I can do...
This was our ever longest converstation, and we got to the root of the problem...That he is a sinner...Please if you read this, drop a prayer or two for him...His salvation would be a great wittnes to many... :)
