Today I was in the back of my big brown truck in the parking lot of the Family Dollar store when an elderly lady approached me. She was very attractive lady, she was using a cane to steady her steps.
She wanted to know why she couldn't`t find Little Debbie fig bar anywhere? She eats one fig bar every morning of her life with her cup of tea. Fearing that I would soon be beaten with her cane, I quickly produced her breakfast of choice; I gave her a gift of three boxes of her favorite cookies!
I must admit that I have a soft spot for elderly women, I always think how blessed their families are to still have them. My mom passed away 10 years ago, how I miss her!
I introduced myself and found out that her name was Phylis, I knew that my gift of figs had won her approval of me. Phylis thanked me and began to walk toward her car. I yelled and began to walk toward her, "do you pray,"" of course".
I told her about my friend Ginger, and her stroke, and ask if she would pray for her! Phylis said that she would be glad to pray and that she would even have her daughter do the same.
I`m not really sure how many prayers you receive for 3 boxes of fig bars, but I do know that God will hears prayers for Ginger, from Phylis and her daughter.
Thank you God!
1 Samuel 30:12 They also gave him a piece of fig cake and two cluster of raisins When he had eaten, his spirit revived; for he had not eaten bread or drunk water for three days and three night.
