A Rabbi Meets a Doctor

Recently, our worker Larry went for his annual eye exam, and his Jewish optometrist, a smart-looking man in his mid-forties, noticed that Larry was Jewish. He also noticed that Larry had listed “Messianic rabbi” as his occupation on the paperwork. Clearly intrigued, the doctor put down his notepad and asked, “How did you become a Messianic rabbi, and what is that?” Larry shared how he came to faith in Yeshua, and the doctor responded by commenting on antisemitism and the persecution of the Jewish people over the last 200 years. The doctor kept asking questions (he was very interested) and finally said to Larry, “Maybe we should talk a little bit about your eyes now…and if you don’t mind, I can give you a discount because of what you do.” Wow! Larry thanked him and invited him to services at his Messianic congregation, Shuvah Israel. Please pray for the doctor, that he and Larry will have more chances to speak and that he might visit the congregation soon and accept Yeshua!
