This may be a long post but it happened today. Today as I was about to get gas a lady flew in the spot on the other side of my pump... pretty abruptly I may add. She ran over to me and explained how she just ran out of gas twice and I kind of laughed at her story telling, then she told me she was trying to get to a town that was about 20 mins away and needed gas because she was trying to get there to see see her 1 1/2 year old baby. I was just smiling and kind of doing a nervous laugh... You know what laugh Im talking about if you know me, but I didnt know what to do. Gas is expensive and money does not come easy, especially when you are trying to grow a show; every penny is counted. Ive made tons of personal sacrifices and taken so many leaps of faith trying to do as I feel God wants me to. Was this even for real or do I look like an easy target? So I asked the other lady in the car if this gas story was true and asked to see the gas gauge, and it was empty and the light was even on. With so much running through my head I heard the words give to her. But how much? Do I give just enough or more than enough and do I even have money on me for this. So I quickly began looking then I ran across some money that we had recently gotten from some of our shirts sales for the show. Yeah we dont make much in them and we put the profit in to show growth but this is what I felt God had put in front of me to give. I turned and gave her the money and told her this is so she can see her kid. She had been talking almost the entire time through all of this and when I gave her the money she went silent.... The look on her face was worth it all. She then asked to hug me, so then I hugged a total stranger and that doesnt happen often to me. Lol. We then talked a little about the show because I was driving our wrapped show truck, it was kind of cool. She filled up and as she drove off said God Bless. That was one heck of a way to end what had been a long and exhausting work day. Sometimes you can tell when people are in hard times and are lost and Im sure God put her and I on the same time schedule for gas today. I can only hope that in some way this gave God glory and I hope she comes to friend him and walk the path He has for her. This show is a blessing and its a full time job on top of my paid full time job but it is so worth it. Our friends, family, fans, and supporters are helping us make an impact and I thank everyone of you from the bottom of my heart. Know that I wont give up and I know God has big plans. Thank you all and I know I can say this in behalf of the whole team...We Love Ya! -Steven
