Today I dragged myself to Walmart to buy groceries. To be honest I had no energy nor did I really want to run into anyone because Im just not feeling very sociable. Sounds mean I guess but it was what I was feeling. I felt guilty for it and as I drove down Hwy 195 I was praying for God to heal my body once again. In my prayers I even asked God to forgive me for what I was feeling in hoping not to have a discussion with anyone on my trip to Walmart. I told God that if He really needed me to talk to anyone I would but I really deep down was hoping He would let me slide today. Lol I made ot out of Walmart with no conversations with anyone! Whew, that was close. It was after 1:00pm and I was starving and getting shaky so I drive into McDonalds drive thru for some French fries to tied me over till supper. Unusually I was the only car in drive thru, and as I hand the girl my $3.00 she looked at me what seemed to almost teary eyed, and said I love your makeup and your scarf I told her thank you and that a dear friend Carmen Farley gave it to me after church yesterday. She looked at me again this time I know I saw tears and said I really need to get back in church, I dont know whats wrong with me Im usually a happy person but I seem to be always on the verge of tears I began to share with her my testimony and constantly looking in my rear view mirror thinking someone any minute was going to be behind me. God allowed me just enough time to share with her briefly my testimony and to write my phone number, name and a bible scripture for her to look up and write I am an Eagle NOT a chicken all on the receipt she had just given me. As soon as I handed her that paper tears fell from eyes as she thanked me and I looked up and a car was waiting on me. I dont know what will come of that brief encounter but I do know that even in the midst of our poor pitiful mes God can still use us if we are willing. All that hoping not to have to talk to someone could have slipped through my fingers if I had let my want tos get in the way I may have missed the only Jesus that girl sees! I pray that the seed I planted grows bigger than any oak tree in walker county!🙏🙌⛪️👭
