Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you.

Before I can tell you about my encounter with an “angel” let me set the stage. It was Easter weekend, hubby was gone to his mother’s to spend his birthday with her. (I welcomed this as he wanted to go to a hockey game and I find them very boring)

My day started out uneventful as I ordered a Walmart order to be delivered at 10 am. But for some reason everything was delivered except my protein shakes that said it would be delivered later that day. Weird but I thought ok? and moved on to the task at hand…

We had ordered a new king size mattress that was supposed to be delivered before hubby left Thursday but it showed up Saturday instead. Which meant I was left to remove the old mattress on my own and set up the new one ! Both heavy , both my problem. Add that to the fact that my emotions were everywhere dealing with empty nest feelings, frustrations from work and struggles with health issues.

The mattress became a problem . Both of them ! The new one opened in the hallway of the complex and the old one was stuck in my front door. My complex was empty as it was Easter weekend! Hours I fought with the mattresses on my own…

At 6 pm I get a text that my protein shakes were going to be delivered. I went to wait for it hoping I could ask for help with the mattresses . A black suv pulls up next to me and an older gentleman asked if I can help him because his gps stopped working and he needed to deliver his order and how no clue where to take it. It was my order. We started talking and I said I hope you have a great resurrection Sunday. (If you know, you know) expecting him to leave .

He smiled and said are you a believer and I shared that I was . he said then your the reason my gps stopped working. Can I pray with you (which I’m usually skeptical about) but confused I said sure . This man started praying and saying things that were exactly what I was wrestling with. Saying Lord help this heartbroken mama, she’s tired and missing her baby. Remind her Lord that you do hear and see her. And so many other things that blew my mind. It legitimately had to be from God because no one knew what I was dealing with. He even said Lord restore her energy she is exhausted . All I could do was cry. He didn’t know it but he gave me more than my protein shakes that day.

Sometimes Angels deliver protein shakes …

And yes I did get the mattress dealt with !
