Feel The Pull - Hear The Whisper - Follow Your Heart

---

This old gal…

Stopped to pick up some food to go…placed the order then sat at a table to wait…it already occupied by a gentleman…appeared to be homeless…just sitting…no food…no drink…no teeth…has seen…some tough days…we chatted…about getting old…that husband of mine…days working in the fields…

Have you eaten…New Friend was asked…have I eaten…he replies…yes I’ve eaten…but then our eyes met and…well no…I haven’t eaten today…I ran out of money…and this old gal froze…taking in…that gentleman sitting there…across the way…the pause was long…silent…then old gal hands…slid some cash…across the table…

New Friend seemed flustered as he picked it up…played with the bill a bit…then made eye contact…and asked…why…old gal me…didn’t really know why…for once…she had no words…but the answer…came for her…Jesus…says New Friend…is that why…because of Jesus…

Old gal me nodded…Yes…it’s because…of Jesus…God has been good to me and that husband of mine…New Friend smiled his toothless smile…put the money in his pocket and said…God…has been good to me…too…

And so it is…sometimes…we don’t know why…and sometimes…we don’t need…to know why…we just need to feel the pull…hear the whisper…and follow…our heart…
​
And this husband of mine…agrees…
