San Francisco Testimony

October 98:     I had a leading to go to San Francisco on a 24 hour trip. My asignment was to go to the Fleet Week "Blue Angels" Navy precision aircraft show. After a long walk, the Lord placed me in a spot with my shield and sitting on a stool. This spot was kind of isolated but I obeyed the Lord's leading.

     When the show was over, hundreds of people walked past me on their way out and could see the shield. This happened for about 2 hours. During this time, two christian brothers stopped and we fellowshipped together.  One brother was from Syria and he had a tremendous amount of wisdom. The other brother was involved in YWAM and he also encouraged me.
Note: The spot where the Lord positioned me was perfect for planting seeds.

     After walking, praying and talking to street people, I started looking for a place to sleep. It was late. I found a spot on concrete near the bay, and it seemed like a perfect place. This was some kind of park. Around 5am, the police showed up and told me and the other street people sleeping near me, to move or be arrested. We had about 5 minutes.

     When I left, I was happy because this fulfilled a requirement to walk in street peoples shoes. I knew I had to be run off; because this is common for street people, and have been on my mind for weeks.

     That day the attitude of the people in San Francisco was very neagative toward me. A gay student was murdered and a christian group showed up at the funeral and were carrying signs about gays. I was glad when this trip was completed.
