Totally Set Up!

God always amazes me by the way He so cleverly sets us up. This morning, I awoke with a strong urge to make a visit to the Cracker Barrel. Visions of beautiful, old-fashioned gifts and the anticipation of their tasteful, sweet tea hitting my tongue lured me strongly. My husband "just happened" to have the day off, so he agreed that a trip to the ole Barrel was in order. I sat down, guzzled down some sweet tea and then ordered a plate to share with my daughter. I told my husband I wanted to browse through the gift shop and look for birthday gifts. As I approached the clearance section, I heard a woman on her telephone saying, "I need to go. I can't breathe." When she hung up, I said to her, "I couldn't help but overhear. You're having a hard time breathing? I have been praying for my mom's asthma for years." She then told me her story of suffering with severe asthma all her life. Another woman heard us talking and she approached us saying, "I have bad asthma, too." I thought, "Okay, God. I know what You're saying and this is a perfect set up!" I shared with them the story of my friend, Cricket, who was instantly healed from asthma supernaturally! I asked, "Would you mind if I prayed for you both?" The sweet ladies were very happy to have prayer, so the first woman invited her sister to join us. There we stood, the four of us, praying together and asking God to intervene. I felt strong tingling in my hands and the presence of the Holy Spirit was so sweet. We continued visiting with each other and exchanged information so that we can follow up. What an awesome, refreshing encounter! So, now I am convinced that God enjoys going to the Cracker Barrel, too. He has really good taste.
