“Seeing” in Amsterdam
A rather intense post by one of our brothers in the Amerstam Amsterdam Church.
Read: “Seeing” by Todd Watkins
Never before have I seen the stark contrast of good and evil as I have seen in Amsterdam. Never have I more strongly felt the presence of evil and sickness as I have here. Never before have I looked in the face of evil as I did yesterday. I don’t know if I can describe the experience I had yesterday. I don’t think I can paint a clear enough picture of the event, though I will try.
Wow. That reads like a page from The Screwtape Letters.

Tears fill my eyes and my heart breaks for this guy… we could only imagine (though I really don’t want to) what he must have endured as a very young child… I have hope that God can rescue him… and that He WANTS to rescue him very very much… and the devil should be afraid of a man who has tasted so much evil you’d think he visited hell on a vacation… because the freedom Christ offers Him is very very powerful… and he was so right about how so much evil can be turned into so much good. I’m going to commit to praying for this man. The way the events of their evening unfolded must only be a glimpse of God’s amazing plan being orchestrated.
