Birthday Man... Faith is Expectations
Today I had a divine appointment from God. I wasnt expecting anything cool to happen today . Thinking back on what Pastor Kelly said last night about faith, we are to expect that God is going to work in our lives. That is faith. We'll God caught me off guard. I was playing FFXII this morning just kinda procastinating on doing some errands. But around 1130 I finally get off my butt, get dressed, and drive to church to getr my pay check. I always pick up my check on Fridays, cuz I always think IMa lose it if I pick it up during Summit. But yeah. I picked it up and drove to the bank. Nothing out of the ordinary. I go in, deposit, then come out. As I walked to my car, there was a man sitting by the bushes in front of my car. He looked at me and I at him. I knew this was from God. He said he needed held and I was open to help him. His name was Alejandro but Alex in short. He said he was released from the hospital today, on his birthday. He still had his tags on and a wrist band saying he was from a hospital. He said he lived in the streets and was hungry. I offered to take him to Baja Fresh. His eyes light up. It was like I had nothing else I could do but help. Its almost automatic... but not me working.. but the Spirit. It was amazing. There was a reason I was there at that time and a reason why he was there also. He praised God for bringing me to him on his birthday. I bought him food and then gave him a $20 gift card to baja fresh. His eyes were amazed seeing a stranger help him out. I was glad God used me today. I was open and He used me. I was ab le to tell him about faith community church and the set free groups. He said he will go. I hope so. I expect that God will work in his life as He does to mine. Its not arrogant to say so. Its faith. Its faith.
