this afternoon

The most amazing thing happened this afternoon...The girls told us they had never been to the airport...(for those that do not know we live right next to the airport) . so we told them we would take them. Since we have had lots of expense this weekend Brother Alvear told me ahead of time to try to find the cheapest snack we could find because there were 12 of us! He let me out and we took the elevator up to another level (the girls first time to ride an elevator) . As we got on a couple with two small children were also waiting to get on and he said, is there room for us and I said sure...I noticed they kept looking at the children...lol..all colors...and most can tell street children right off...The man said to me, Where are you going? I said, no where just brought the children to see the planes...the children got off and I said go find us two tables...when they were out of hearing distance I told the couple that they were street babies...( I was afraid they was thinking I was involved in some child kidnapping scheme...as it happens a lot especially in our area.) . The man said where are you going to buy them something...I said I guess at Bob's. He said let's walk over there because my wife and I are buying! I told the children this kind couple are going to buy our food so order something cheap...The lady said let me order for the,....I said ok...they don't know how to order anyway...She order them the biggest sandwich, with fries and a huge drink...This strange couple spent over 100 american dollars on my precious little babies...When we sat down I cried at the precious provision of our Lord.

He really does not have a command of the English language but he is a prayer warrior and has some kind of special calling or burden to see people get the Holy Ghost. He has been like that since he was around 5...He never wanted to leave if someone was praying for the Holy Ghost....
God bless you.

One of the saddest things is to see people leave the service when others are still praying at the altar. I know sometimes it is necessary, but sometimes I think its callousness.

Honestly, I have been in services where I would rather some people leave than stay when there were folks seeking the Holy Ghost in the altar.
