The way wherein I should walk....Psalm 143:8

I would like to share with you a testmiony of the Lord's work from this past week. It is a powerful work of the Lord. Sometimes in life we get busy,but if only we could slow down and say "Lord,show me the way wherein I should walk today."
Tuesday evening I was lying in bed reading thru my bible. I come across a verse that grabbed my attention. It was James 1:27. It says that Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this,To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction,and to keep himself unspotted from the world. I told Shane about this and read him the verse and I thought how many times do we forget these people and their loneliness? God is telling us what he classifys as pure religon. I believe that this is saying religon is not a denomination or belonging to a organization.
So Wed morning I woke up and did my regular morning duties and Adyn and I headed out the door to the car. After we got in the car and got things together,I finally started the car. And as I set there I thought that I needed to talk to God before I leave this driveway,this is something that I had never done before. I asked the Lord to order my footsteps today and let me do something,say something,help someone,put someone in my path. Something to show God glory. Even just to make a difference somehow and someway in a person's life an so on. So off we went. God,me and my son Adyn. I didn't stop to think that God was actually with me and my son.
We then went to get my grandmother and we decided to go to lunch at Dairy Queen instead of Mcdonald's. Adyn was very persistant on Mcdonald's. Grandmother and I thought DQ. So we set down to eat. As we were eating a little elderly lady set down across from us with her sandwich and shake. I noticed her praying for her food. Adyn then went to get granmother a napkin. I told Adyn to go get the lady a napkin also. he did it,but she didn't notice. Adyn went and took her another napkin. Then she noticed. Her and Adyn exchanged words and smiles. She then asked my son to sit with her.She told Adyn that she didn't have anyone to eat with. So he did. This is not like my son,especially to a woman he has never seen. Then I took some pictures out of my wallet to show her. She asked where we lived and what church we went to. She kept saying how she just loved Adyn and how he was so intelligent. So more talking and smiling and so on. I just sit there thinking to myself that there was just something special about this lady. I could not put my finger on it. So as we got up to leave,so did she. She said how that if she would have went thru drive thru she would have never met us. We hugged and Adyn hugged her. She then said where about do u live so we might see one another again? I told her where we lived. Then as we were walking out the door. She said if I never see u again,I will always think of you. Right then something hit me. I asked where do u live? Of course she told me and I asked if we could come visit sometime? She said that would be so great. So I took her hand and we walked one another out. I noticed what she was driving. I still could not put my finger on why she was so special. I knew it was something because my soul was bubbling with happiness on this inside. She was special,we felt like we had known her. She told us God Bless you and that how she had already had a wonderful day meeting us. Then we parted. As we were getting in the car, grandmother said I knew that lady. She never had any children or grandchildren. I said is she probally a widow? My grandmother said well I imagine. I then took my grandmother home still thinking. As we were driving home,the Lord spoke into my soul and said, don't you remember what u asked for in the driveway? It was like a light bulb that came on in my heart. So Adyn and I decided that we were gonna go on a regular basis to see this woman. As we were out driving yesterday,Adyn and I went by the address that she gave us,and there set her car. We are planning to make a visit with her soon. I bet your wondering what her name is,well guesswhat,I have not a clue. We will soon find out and see what the Lord has in store.
In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct your path, Proverbs 3:6. Thank you God for leading us to someone special and for showing me where to walk when I couldn't even see and thanks for answering my prayer. I am also reminded that where I go,God will go with me and direct my path when I acknowledge him. Then instead of an I,with God it becomes a we. The following night we went to bible study and our lesson was exactly what we experienced on Wed. God always confirms his word...Praise the Lord. Where will you walk today, and what does God want you to go and do?
