Gabriel is an elderly teacher who retired several years ago. Because his pension is not enough to support himself and his family, he has taken other part-time teaching positions over the years. He is a proud man and is not open to the gospel, although he has heard it many times. Gabriel is a hard worker, but since economic conditions have deteriorated in the city in which he lives, he cannot earn enough even to support himself, much less his family, with his additional teaching job. He recently humbled himself and reluctantly asked a believer for financial help. Through this interaction, other believers in the city are now planning on investing in him spiritually. Please pray that this will be a turning point in Gabriel’s life. Pray that he will see that more than money, he needs a Savior. Ask that he will put aside his pride, humble himself, and turn to the Father. Pray that the believers who are interacting with him will be wise and bold as they share hope and truth.
