During one of our Bible study on Hebrews 11, our girls and I stumbled upon a topic of different denominations. Usually Bible studies are led by senior and junior counselors, which means only Miss Blair and I lead the girls in studying God's Word. Miss S-, one of the support staff, was there on that day because I had sprained my ankle and she was filling in for some of my tasks, such as escorting the girls to the bathrooms and helping them take showers.

When we stumbled upon the subject of different denomination, Miss Blair said that Christians should not let different denominations confuse us or make us think that other Christians are going to hell because they belong to a different denomination. Miss S-, who had been listening the entire time, said "Yeah, like my mom goes to a Muslim church every Saturday and they believe in the same God. As long as we all worship the same God, it's ok." I kind of cringed and looked at her. Then Miss Blaire quickly said to the girls, "We have to worship the same Jesus. If you think that worshiping a palm tree will get you to heaven, you will be wrong. As long as the all the denominations believe in the message Jesus proclaims, they are saved."

I had not had the time or the courage to address Miss. S that her beliefs were wrong. I don't want her to go back home and think that going to a Muslims church is the same as going to a Christian church. I debated on whether I should address this topic to her and decided that I was too afraid to do it. Today, God clearly showed me John 14:6 in the scriptures where Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." I immediately thought of Miss S.

To frankly put it, I am afraid to confront her. I don't want her to think that I am judging or criticizing her. I just want to show her the truth. I think that God wants me to speak to her and show her the truth but I am afraid to. If this is what He wants, I will obey. But please pray for courage and wisdom for me as I address Miss S some time tomorrow or this week. She is an amazing girl but is lost. I want her to know Jesus so badly. Pride and fear of rejection is getting in the way for me to speak to her. Please keep me in prayers this weekend so I can speak to her in truth and in love.
