Hello World...and welcome to my blog.
About me:
I am an Evangelist. That means I preach the gospel as led by the Holy Spirit.
My ministry:
Leads me to reflect and to write, a lot! My mission is to share, as you read it is my hope that you will be inspired.
I do have a daughter and years ago I sent her to California to visit my sister who was desparately homesick. She was flying for the first time and as an unaccompanied minor. This placed a huge amount of stress on me nevertheless we all overcame. As usual, for any mother, there were millions of details for which were accounted and due to lack of experience many details were also unaccounted.
One such minor detail is that I neglected to provide cash for the plane ride. I'd provided her snacks, reading material, things to occupy her time, etc. I knew that the plane also provided a meal. It never occurred to me that cash would be needed during the plane ride. I didn't even have the foresight to know that a movie would be offered. My daughter, as with many elementary school students, preferred being entertained by the in flight movie. Except that movie could only be heard by using the headphones that are only conveniently provided by the airline staff at a price of $5. Because of a kind hearted stranger, my daughter was able to enjoy the movie. I was thankful to God who had placed her on the same flight as this stranger who dug into her heart to donate a set of headphones to my daughter so that she could watch the movie. So to anyone who has ever given a young girl the chance to see a movie on a plane, Thank you!
Even now that I think of this story, it makes me smile to know that a stranger existed and was able to provide my daughter just a little happiness for only $5. I hope this blog serves a similar purpose.
