I'm not sure if I mentioned this before but before Christmas I received a message from a guy I had a very brief rebound thing with when I was 16. I mean like we talked for like a week lol. The message was something like this, "hey kristi I know we haven't talked to each other in a long time but I have something I'd like to give to you. Please contact me at this number". I was like what???? I haven't seen or talked to this guy in like 25 years what could he possibly have to give me. I was at a football game so I didn't text him til later that evening and he calls me and tells me that he feels led by God to give me some money to help me out with Christmas. I was flabbergasted. I was in disbelief. I didn't know what to think. I was like are you serious? Is this a joke? Which I remembered hearing at some time or another that he had become very religious and maybe was even a preacher so that was in the back of my mind. Well he was serious and he gave me $300. I'm not kidding. He does have a good job and owns his own farm, but still.
Last week he contacts me again and says they had slaughtered some cattle on his farm and he wants to give me some and also some money. Sure enough he meets me and gives me a huge bag of hamburger, steaks, and roasts and $300.
He says that it makes him feel good to help people that are trying and doing their best and it's hard to find people willing to accept help.
I call him my guardian angel.
WOW--he is living out his new found life by doing what Jesus would do. i love it!!
