God's Mysterious and Powerful Ways. . .Proven!

For all those who doubt.

There truly is a God and how loving He is, for He is willing to show us HOW and WHY He loves us.

This morning during Rev. Ashur Lazar's Sermon (at the St.Hurmizd Cathedral, Sydney), he told a story to amazed Parishioners. It was of an event which unfolded on Friday evening.

On Friday 7th of September, an intruder jumped the front fence of the St. Hurmizd Cathedral, armed with an arsenal of tools, with the intention of breaking into the Church. This man was described as an 'Islander' or 'Kiwi'.

While the man was negotiating the lock of the front doors of the Church, he noticed a figure standing 'behind' the Statue of Raban Hurmizd, to the intruder's right side. This figure was described as wearing all black, with a black hood covering its head. The figure approached the intruder, who had frozen.

The hooded 'man' told the intruder that ". . .you cannot do this, it won't happen. . .".

The next morning, the intruder visited the Cathedral, approached Rev. Ashur Lazar and asked him if he was the Priest. Rev. Lazar then took the man upstairs so they could speak in private.

The man then explained to Rev. Lazar that it was him who attempted to break into the Church. He told the Priest that he had with him many tools to help him break any lock, but he did not succeed. He told the Priest that he had $10 with him and wanted to place that into the donation box inside the Church and he also wanted to pray. Rev. Lazar was more than happy to allow the man to do so.

After a short period of time, Rev. Lazar noticed the man sitting in the far corner of the Church, head in hands, praying.

May God bless this man, who was approached by a dark clothed figure from the shadows. This man has now been brought into the light and I pray that the Lord keeps him there and guides him to live a life for Christ.

This is yet another inspirational story of how God can work in peoples' lives. We, as Christians never doubt His myterious ways, but how much more encouraging is it for us to hear such stories. It delights us even more and fuels our Spirits.
