I had an experience today that has me wondering for hours, "Why?"
I ran into a woman today that I did not know, had never met before, and had never spoken to before. She called me aside and asked me to pray for her and her children.
We talked. She shared with me problems she was having with her children. Afterwards, she thanked me for allowing her to cleanse her spirit, and how good it was to be able to talk with someone that was open and would understand.
I was wearing a motivational t-shirt that had, "Love the Lord with all your heart" printed on it.
I can't believe that was all that was needed, to make someone in need reach out.
I am interested in what you think.
Thank you for sharing that.
So many people out there just dont have anyone to talk to. Having someone to talk to, to listen to you, to care is one of the greatest things in the world.
I think God put you both there at that particular moment. I think that women will never forget you and you did more for her than you even realize.
I am remembering how the Holy Spirit was sent as a "comforter." You showed that lady love and comfort. The Holy Spirit worked through you, and that's exactly what it looks like. He Had you in that exact place in that exact moment for that very reason.
Its such an honor when God uses us like that.
In my opinion, sometimes the greatest gift we can give someone is our time, our ear, and our understanding. It is so rare to find someone who will give those things freely these days.
They live.
We sleep.
