Scout’s honor

October 28, 2008

As I was coming out of IGA store I saw the girl scouts selling cookies. I am a diabetic so I cannot eat sugar. As I politely said no thank you, I got to my car and heard the Lord instruct me to go back and buy the cookies. I sat in my car saying loudly “but Lord you know I cannot eat them? “  He said  “did I say you were to eat them? I said then what do I do with them?” Immediatly My precious Lord showed me a way to witness His love in a greater way I have ever known.

As I approached the Girl scouts and their Leader again, I asked How many of you know My Jesus? With such excitement they all started chattering I know Him I Know Him. I asked them How many Boxes of cookies do you have left? They counted them all up and told me how many. Well I said Jesus is going to buy all of your cookies today How about that? They all began to become so excited. I said now after paying for them all, Jesus wants to know that you know Him and Love Him .
So what your going to do for Him is give the cookies away from Jesus today with great love and enthusiasm. They all started to scream yes that will be so fun. I left the stand and the Leader ran after me and said what Is your name, we have a website and I have to put this on our website. I told her I cannot give you my name but feel free to let your readers know that The Lord stopped by today to buy Girl Scout cookies. She hugged me and as I was driving away what a thrill it was to see these young girls passing out their cookies in our Fathers name. Thank you for hearing my story
