Sharing the Gospel in the Adoption Message

I just had the opportunity to share with a Hindu man who took me in a shuttle to my hotel from the airport the other day.  I asked him where he was from and he told me he was from India and we got talking about the work that I do for adopting families to help them with their adoption flights.

He began sharing about how adoption is so necessary in India where he is from because the children are in desperate need.  I was really compelled to share with him about Jesus.  It was beautiful how the Lord helped me to bring up the topic of the gospel as it relates to adoption.  I began sharing with this man how there is only One God, and how Jesus Christ is God, and wants to adopt him personally into His family.  

This young man was very shocked to hear this.  Of course in Hinduism, they believe in millions of gods.  I proceeded to share with him God's heart for him to be adopted into His family.  I could tell the Lord was working on his heart.  I shared with him that this is the message of God's redemption that He has for him.  I shared with him how adoption physically relates so closely to being adopted into God's family and being born again.  I shared with him how when a person is adopted, they have a whole brand new LIFE!  Everything becomes new for them, and this is a picture of the new LIFE that Jesus Christ wants to give him too, if he will repent from his way of living and come to Jesus for salvation.  He sincerely thanked me for sharing this with him, and I left him with a gospel tract that had lots of verses on it.  

I can't wait for the next opportunity to share this!!  I am excited to see God using the story of adoption to touch people's hearts and help them to see the picture of having a new life and being born again.  Praise the LORD!
