It was a gray, cloudy morning, so Said decided to sit for a moment next to the city’s most beautiful fountain. As he rested under the trees and listened to the sound of the water, two believers approached him. Said was intrigued about what the men were saying to him and quickly admitted that he had studied religion and theology. While his nominal Christian and Muslim parents had taught him some of their beliefs, Said felt that the true religion of God is found only in the Old Testament. Jesus, he thought, was merely a good man, perhaps a prophet. Then he heard the believers explain that prophecies about Jesus are found throughout the Old Testament. They encouraged him to read certain passages to see for himself what these prophecies say. Said wrote the references in his notebook and promised to read them at home. Pray for Said, asking that Jesus will be revealed to him as he reads the Old Testament. Pray that Said will experience a personal, life-changing relationship with the Savior.
