APPLY YOURSELF TO THE FIELD MINISTRY: January 16-22, 2023, First Conversation, Lesson 4, Prepared Assignment. 

First Conversation (3 min.): Use the topic of ideas for conversation. Then offer the person a magazine that talks about a topic they have mentioned (th lec. 4).

PUBLICATOR (A): Hello María all this morning I have been worried because I saw your face very different from what you are, and I was waiting for lunch to ask you, because I know you as someone cheerful and very outgoing. You are well?.

NEIGHBOR(A): Thank you Sofía for caring about you, and well, it's because of Juan's work situation, he has heard that at work there are possibilities that many have been fired during the following months, and that has us Very worried because we depend on their salary to cover some debts that have been obtained in recent weeks.

PUBLISHER(A): Unfortunately, in recent days a lot has been heard about the loss of jobs to which we are all exposed due to the economic crisis. 

NEIGHBOR(A): Yes, although we don't have any notification, but just thinking about it worries us, and personally I try to ask God to give us a solution, but it seems to be in vain. 

POSTER (A): Surely it is something, in which you have to worry and a lot, but I am glad that you are seeking God's help through prayer, that shows that you trust him. But as you say, is it that God listens to all the prayers we make to him?

NEIGHBOR(A): To be honest, I think not.

PUBLISHER (A): Thank you for your response, please let me share this text from the Bible from Psalm 65:2 please listen: To you who listens to prayers, people of all kinds will come to you. From what you heard, Maria, is God aware of our prayers? 

NEIGHBOR(A): He implies that he is, but it seems that he is not responding to us. 

PUBLISHER(A): As you well say, it gives that feeling if you think we can leave a question pending to continue this conversation about what things we can ask of God through prayer.

NEIGHBOR(A): If I really wanted to know about that question.

PUBLISHER(A): Until then, I want to share with you this issue of Awake magazine and as you see on this cover, just as you are concerned about the employment situation of your Husband, there are other people who go through such difficult situations and who also need God. Please read it carefully, please share it with your husband if you wish, and we can continue talking about this topic at another time. Until then we can join each other to eat together.

NEIGHBOR(A): Of course, I am very interested in seeing the cover of this magazine. I will share it with my husband.
