Officer: you are supposed to be Carrying your license with you at all times when you are driving. This carries a fine.
Me: this is a public holiday and double Demerit points apply today and this will mean I will lose my license. Can you please extend some grace to me as Jesus has to all of us?
Officer: you mentioned Jesus, are you a Christian?
Me: officer, am a pastor and if I lose my license this will hinder my work for Jesus.
Officer: how do I know that you are a pastor and that you are telling the truth?
Me: would you like me to quote bible passages to you from memory?
Officer: okay proceed.
Me: “I am the resurrection and the life anyone who believes in me though he die he will live” John 11: 25
(at this point the officer got teary eyed and Jesus revealed to me something very specific about him)
Me: Officer, you were scared about the scan you had last week regarding your liver… But it’s come out fine… You are going to have many years with your wife Sharon and two boys.
(he burst out into tears)
Officer: here is my phone number… Pastor please call me I want you to talk to my family. Now follow me as I escort you home to get your drivers license… And be more careful next time.
This afternoon I will go and visit and pray and I already know the outcome
