At the end of the service I stood at the exit shaking hands with the people as they left, when suddenly the Holy Spirit spoke in my heart and said, “Behind you is a young lady that is about to leave”. I turned around, and indeed there she was. I got her by her arm. I said, “Excuse me, have you already received Jesus Christ as your Saviour?” To my surprise, tears gushed out of her eyes. She said, “No, I haven’t. I want to. But I can’t”. I said, “Now why can’t you find salvation tonight in Jesus Christ?” She said, “Because I’ve got a boyfriend who hates Jesus.” I said, “Wait a minute. If you have a boyfriend who hates Jesus you’ve got the wrong boyfriend all together.” “No,” she said, “but I love him so much! I love him so much! I love him so much!” And she ***pulled herself loose*** and she walked out of the door.
