This morning a lovely woman driving a clean-black 4-door BMW casually dressed, and a beautiful smile, had noticed me in the parking lot of my son's school three days in a row. I will call her Emily, - she approached me before entering the school. Without any formal introduction she walked over and said, "I have seen you three mornings in one week and we begin conversing. She informed me of her affiliation with the school etc., but before our conversation ended I immediately realized she was a prayer answered.
Early morning before I raised my eyelids, I heard a voice say, "Fast today between the hours of 6:00AM - 2:00PM I have an awesome blessing in store for you." (paraphrased) Trying to clear my head, wondering what blessing(s) it might be - one had already occured: I woke up capable of moving my limbs and breathing. Grateful!!! How grateful!!
An act of obedience is a reward within itself. While we are always thinking of what our personal needs are, try to meet someone else's need, but that's exactly what was on my mind - (my need) but today it was for my son. God intervened on his behalf. It's still early 11:11AM and an answer for direction came as clear as daylight. My son needed a little encouragement. Emily, the woman in the clean-black 4-door BMW was moved to do something special and she did...It was awesome!
It doesn't matter if you are in a restaurant, grocery shopping, school, or fueling your car - that's the magic moment to meet a new friend, or an angel. That moment can be crucial to your next dental or doctor's appointment, job interview, church invite, stage play or television commercial. Never miss that golden opportunity to speak, compliment or give some free advise. I love those moments! Try it sometimes. You'll be glad you did!!!!
