Parking Lot Hope

indexI was in the parking lot of a local store when I saw a woman crying to herself as she was putting her bags into her car. I said, “Are you OK?”  She ended up telling me about how she felt all alone in the world and shared some of her recent health problems that she was dealing with. I listened to her and prayed for her – declaring life, health, peace, and joy, and let her know how very much God loves her. She thanked me and said she believes He sends people to us during times of need. I talked to her about her faith and invited her to church and to our Engage group, and shared about how family is not always blood-related. By the time we parted ways, she was smiling, laughing, and hugging and kissing me.
