Well I had to do my grocery shopping today. I prayed and asked God if He could use me while I was shopping that I was available to Him. Well, I went about my business trying to focus on what we needed. I got some good deals and I kept under my budget, although I remembered when I got in my vehicle that I should have gotten frozen fruit for my protein shakes. Any ways as I was waiting in line to check out. I suddenly heard from God to tell the lady in front of me that God loves her. I was nervous but I did it! I tapped her on the shoulder and asked her her name and she said; "Margie", I said Hi my name is Kim. I said I believe God wants me to tell you He loves you and He loves you very much. She smiled a beautiful smile and said I really needed that I need help. I said I will pray for you and she thanked me and I said I can use all the prayers I can get too. So I go back to my cart and then God reminded me of a booklet I had in my purse that I had been reading it was titled; "Help From Above" She thanked me and then before she left she turned around and said; "Have a great weekend". I said you too. Wow I was flying high in my spirit. I was so excited God used me like that. I did pray for her too.

It is important to listen and do what you are prompted to do. Not only did it help her, it blessed you as well.

You are absolutely right. We also are to worship Him in spirit and in truth. I have also experienced His awesome presence during worship times and my husband has caught me worshipping and preaching in my sleep. It' been awhile since that has happened but I've not forgotten about it. LOL

Amen we certainly do. The world is full of His miracles all we have to do is look for them and we will surely find Him at work in this cruel world that we are living in. We are only passing through this is not our home! I can't wait to go home with Jesus and feel His loving arms around me Hallelujah glory to God in the highest.

@Butchcass4 Sometimes by dad would say something to me that didnt sound like his words. I know where those words were coming from now.

Thanks for sharing. 
This is something I need to work on. Most of the time I stop myself from saying things like that because in my mind, they might not want to hear it. Guess i better start trusting that God will make a way for me when I say it.

Absolutely He will use you if you just trust Him and take a step of faith. Every time is like the first time but as you see the results it is encouraging to reach out to people. Most people respond with hope and faith and gratitude.

@dlr297 You are absolutely right. It is always exciting to have Him use us.

I am forever in the attitude of gratitude and that helps me notice those who are less privileged to reach out to.

That is very good how God used you to encourage another.

Yes I was a little nervous but as soon as I took that step His peace came and I knew I was doing His will at that given moment. I had prayed on my way to the store that I surrendered to Him and that He could use me any way He wanted to. For Him to use me just reaffirms His love for me and Margie too. He loves the whole world. Jesus paid the price for the whole world.

@Butchcass4 Sometimes we are not sure what we will say but when the time arrives, the words just seem to flow out of our mouths. That is when I believe God is working through us.

It sounds like you said just what she needed to hear.

God absolutely knew her and what she needed to hear. I just needed to be obedient and tell her what He gave me to tell her, nothing more nothing less just His words. Praise all go to God in the highest. Peace on earth and goodwill towards men.

I enrich people's days all the time without needing an outside force to help me. It's good that you were guided, but it's helpful for anyone to learn how to do it naturally. Any time I go to the store there's always people smiling that weren't before.
