Have you ever had a feeling that you needed to do something for someone or give someone a call yet ignored that feeling? I would venture to guess that this has happened from time to time. I know that it has happened to me in the past; however, I now know that when this happens it is a message from a higher power, and I need to act on it.
Last Friday I was returning home from a business meeting, and I saw a man sitting by himself . Suddenly, as a made a left turn continuing on my journey, my inner voice asked "Is that Man ok? Does he need some help?" I had no reason to think this. There was no indication that he was in any need, but my spirit would not let that feeling subside. I turned the car around and when I reached the gentleman, I asked him," Excuse me Sir, are you ok? Do you need anything?" He replied, " Thank you Ma'am, do you have any change for a ten dollar bill? " He continued to explain that he needed change for the bus. I asked if the bus would give him change. "No Ma'am. Perhaps someone else would come by. Are you going that way?" I replied," No Sir, I actually turned around because I just wanted to make sure you were ok." He replied, "Thank you Ma'am, I really appreciate it."
I pulled away and then suddenly my inner voice said, " Dallas, you just need to see where he needs to go and take him there. You have time." I didn't even think about the safety issue. As I was passing him now on the left side, I rolled down the window and asked, "Where do you need to go?" He replied, "I just needed to get some change for the bus. " " Well, how much do you need for the bus?" " A dollar" he replied. I quickly looked in my wallet and just happen to have one dollar.
He approached the car and after thanking me with a huge smile on his face, he tried to hand me a ten dollar bill in exchange for one dollar. " No, you had to work hard for that. Please just take this and have blessed day." He was so grateful, and I found myself driving off with tears welling up in my eyes just amazed at how God will use us if we just say Yes.
My wish for you is that you say "yes" and do not miss out on the opportunity to be part of God's daily miracles. It is through us that God touches others on a daily basis.
