Because that would really suck." So, I came up to the counter and offered, "How about if I say I'll pray for you and I really do it?"<BR/><BR/>He smiled and kept messing around with his lanyard containing a nametag. I finally understood that he wanted to make sure I knew his name. Dale. "Ok I'll be sure to pray for DALE, but God knew your name anyway, right?"</I><BR/><BR/>That was fantastic and a great praise! It shows that sometimes, ministering can just happen right outside our door!twinklemomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00120498999037303181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-368490303016494231.post-36775934709086563552008-04-05T10:44:00.000-05:002008-04-05T10:44:00.000-05:00What an awesome encounter!
