We just found out on Sunday that something amazing happened
after the Second Saturday event that we participated in at the Phoenix Rescue
Mission. We were working on the clean-up and repainting of the facility and the
surrounding grounds. There was another group of volunteers working at long
tables with a gazebo over top for some shade, and they were putting together
bag lunches for the homeless. At the end of the event there was supposed to be
an organization that was going to pick up the lunches and distribute them. Well,
they didn’t show up.
We had all left except for the fellow that was coordinating
the project so he loaded the 1000 bag lunches into his truck and wondered and
prayed, “What do I do now?” The answer came to him as he pulled out of the
parking lot prepared to turn toward home. The answer was, “No, turn in the
other direction.” So, he did.
He drove just a few blocks down the road and came upon an
organization that was doing an outreach talking to a large group of homeless
people. He stopped and asked the organizers if they could use some bag lunches.
They burst into tears saying that they had been praying for a way to feed the
people that they were talking to.
It is amazing when God brings it all together.
