"HOMILY AT THE GRIDLOCK"
There was a gridlock in Brisbane City this day, bumper to bumper with a sea of vehicles moving down a major, main thoroughfare at snails pace, the snail had crutches.

I was my usual self in the Christ, full of joy and gladness knowing there were victories to be won that he/Jesus has already won. Preaching repentance and forgiveness under a fiery anointing.

There were people calling out all over, there was also a deadly silence smoldering through the thoroughfare, you could have cut the air with a knife, you could have heard a pin drop, it was awesome.......click.

Some people called out from their car "over here, we'll take a book", others simply cursed in anger.......click.

Months later, actually today/12.12.2006 I was preaching yet again in the same area of the CBD and I saw a man who I have been meaning to give a book to for some time now. This same man was at the 'homily', months back.

Today he was sitting in the bus shed looking over at me very intently, so today I went to him as Father led. He had a book in his hand, so I offered him a tract as a book mark, he took it with a smile, so I then gave him a book, he took it, so I gave him a CD, he took it and finally I gave him one of JTCM's letters. It was then that he said smiling..........
"Gidday there, I can never forget the day I saw you here when you gave your "Homily At The Gridlock" it was outstanding, beautifully presented and so timely. You are an important person you know, you are out here doing it. This is what it is about. Did you know I have seen you time and time again but I've never had the intestinal fortitude to speak to you, well done and I look forward to reading your book etc".......Paul Grove / Brisbane, 12.12.2006
