God's Timing!

God's timing is incredible. Everything happens in His time, not ours. I want to share a story with you that happened earlier this week.

The church I attend has a member that hasn't been there in a few years. I have never met this person, but have heard her name a few times, for as a congregation we still pray for her.

The other day at the hospital, a woman came to check in and I overheard her name as she was saying it to the receptionist. It was the woman's name from church for whom we continue to pray.

I started pushing her wheel chair towards the elevator, praying that God would give me the boldness to ask her if she was the same woman. He did! I asked her and she said yes, that was her name. I asked her if she attended the same church.  She said that she had, but had not been there for a very long time. I asked her about our pastor, and again she said yes, he was the same one!

I told her that our church was continueing to pray for her. That she had not been forgotten about. That we still cared about her and what happens to her. She thanked me and told me that she was going to call our pastor and let him know about meeting me.

That night at our service the pastor came up to me and told me that she had called. He told me that she became emotional when she mentioned meeting me, because I was a complete stranger to her, but yet I told her that our church still cared about her and prayed for her.

So I praised GOD for having us cross paths that day. I praise Him for giving me the boldness to ask the question and then giving me the words to speak! To me it was no big deal, but to her, it was wonderful!

So God's timing is amazing. He had me at the right place at the right time that day! That is one of my prayers when working at the hospital; to be able to talk about God and Jesus to everyone! I am working on it. I still have a long way to go, but I am getting there. All the glory to GOD!!
