My Encounter Today

This morning when I got up, I went out side to bring in the garbage can. As I approach the side walk, on the other side was a man with a long beard covering his face, even longer than mine. He was bend over like in great pain with vomit on his beard. As I approach him I ask him do he needed help and do he want me to call 911, he said no. As I looked into his eyes they seemed to be clear and he had a quiet smile on his face. I couldn't leave him  without helping in some way, so I gave him some finance to help where he would be able to buy some food. 
I said to myself, we have food inside the house, so I quickly when inside to the house to make up a package to give to him, but when I came back out side he was gone, no were insight.
I don't know how well this note is written or whether every punctuation is placed correctly, but I am saying this to encourage you. Some times the Lord allow someone to come across your pass and it's up to you to do what you feel in your heart to do (and maybe He send an angel across your past). 
When you do something for a person in need, do it not reluctantly or under compulsion and God will reward you accordingly.
(2 Corinthians 9:7)
