I was walking through the snowy parking lot to
My car I noticed a truck with its window open.
A woman inside was smoking and looked
Downcast.
I continued on to my car and
Scooted into my seat, but I
Couldn't get the lady off my mind.
"Go back."
"But she will think I'm crazy."
"Go back,"
When I got close to the gal's face
I was almost knocked over by the
Cigarette smoke.
She was weeping.
"Can I help?"
"No, I'm okay. It's just that my
Husband is having surgery."
"Then you're not okay."
"I'm scared because when my mom
Had surgery she died from a blood
Clot."
"Can I pray?"
"Yes."
I placed my hand on Kathleen's arm and
Prayed for her husband and the doctor who at
That moment was working on him.
I prayed for calmness for her.
She thanked me and I handed her my
"Facing Life" tract.
When I got into my car the second time I
Headed home with a clear conscience and
With two more names to add to my
Prayer list.
