Teetering Homeless
Philipians1:3-14
The things that have happened to me have turned out for the furtherance of the
Gospel.
Simple acts of kindness.
As I sit here in my motel room teetering on the edge of homeless I can see how God is blessing me with this situation and using me to be a blessing.
Today as I explored the city I got lost and turned around so many times. But God gave me safe people to approach.
The first were some Asian tourist we helped eacother try to figure out the confusing maps at the max stops. I showed them an app that can help with transit it was a fun interaction.
I couldn't figure out my directions. I wound up on an east bound train didn't feel right so I got off the train walked up the block saying a little prayer. God blessed me with another person a city garbage collector who got me and another lost person to the yellow line heading north.
I was on the right train I missed my stop listening to some good Christion music. I got up at the next stop up. Then had to get on a southbound train.
But there I was apprached by an older lady she asked if I knew where a certain motel was. " I said I dont mind googling it." She didnt think that was the right motel. The train came I said "God bless you!" She told me ""God bless you back if I hadn't of been lost in my music missed my stop I would have missed that opportunity to be a blessing.
How can God use this to teach others of being a blessing. The best method of furthering the Gospel is being a wittness not by preaching but being a blessing or a smile or having a chance to be a witness.
My "Daily Bread Quote"
Trials can be a road to triumph
" I see that Lord thankyou!" Amen
