Listen Now
About a year ago I was helping a lady from church who had cancer. I went to the grocery store for her and took her to treatments.
One day last February I dropped her off at an appointment. When she called for me to pick her up, she asked if I’d first stop at CVS and get a few things. I bought them, and the items cost a little over $21. On the way home, she asked how much everything was so she could pay me back. I told her, “Don’t worry. I’ve got it.” Naturally she insisted on paying me back, but I told her no. It was my blessing to provide these things for her.
When we got to her house, she stayed in the car while I came around to open the door for her. When I opened my door and stepped out, I put my foot right on a twenty dollar bill!
Only God is so good and faithful! He knew I didn’t have any extra money, but I felt led to help her anyway. My great God rewarded me in a special way!
And in case you think this could easily happen, I want to tell you that this street had only three other houses and no sidewalks. There wasn’t much foot traffic there!
His servant,
