I was doing a power walk with a friend when we spotted the stone nativity scene on the beach! This is the third consecutive year the “rock guy” has graced our beach with his stone crèche. The artist uses no mortar as he gingerly balances or nestles each stone in place. He welcomes visitors to check out his FB page: Juan Manuel Cisneros.
This year there was a decorated Christmas tree next to the crèche! Since I was carrying a few Jesus tracts, I decided to contribute to the tree’s beauty by attaching a few with bobby pins!
A young woman approached as I was finishing, and began reading one of the tracts. I said, “It’s Christmastime and it’s about Jesus.”
She smiled, “Yes. I like what I’m reading here. I actually came down to the beach to pray. I’m going through a difficult season and need to make some decisions.”
We were pleased to learn that she knows Jesus and attends a Bible centered church. She was grateful and teared up when we offered to pray with her, that God would give her wisdom, guidance, direction and strength as she makes these important decisions.
We continued our walk and discovered another rather neglected Christmas tree, growing by the beach parking lot. It was only partially decorated. Fortunately, we had a couple more bobby pins.
