$5 Blessing Continued....

So, here is a story I thought was worth sharing. If you don't already know our church offices are located in the heart of the marketplace (a mall), and so as you can imagine we have tons of people that stop in for numerous reasons. Over the past year we have made relationships with some of the other store managers and workers. Well, Brian the Lead Pastor, of Overflow was in the office the other day and was thinking of how to bless some people with the remaining money that was left from the Sunday service. The money came from a donation made in which Brain felt that 10% of that donation should be used as a blessing to the community.
So as he sat and pondered he thought it would be nice to bless the workers in one particular store in the mall, and just as he was having the thought, the manager of that store was passing by, so he called them into the office and asked if they would like a free lunch today on Overflow. The manager gladly excepted and then left to start her shift in time. A few minutes went by when a girl came rushing into the office and asked Brian "Do you hear from God?" He was a little hesitant to answer, she said "like in your thoughts and stuff" "ya" Brian replied. She proceeded to tell him how her and her friend that works with her were just talking about how hungry they were but had no money for lunch. They both were totally blown away by this.
A few minutes later the other girl came into the office almost in tears. She told Brian that the night before she got our her Bible for the first time in years and that, that very morning on her way into work, she was praying and telling God how she wanted to start fresh with Him again!!
How amazing is God! What an opportunity to share how God cares and how He loves them beyond their realization. Not sure what is going to come of this, but one thing I know for sure and that is, GOD is on the move big time here with Overflow and I am truly blessed to be a part of this and to be a servant of God in this area of Michigan.

Still planning on blessing all my co-workers tomorrow with some early morning pastries and also taking one person out to lunch next week, just to be a blessing to others. Keep you posted.
