SPECIAL GROCERY LIST : Is God There ???
Louise Redden, a poorly dressed lady with a look
of defeat on her face, walked into a grocery store.
She approached the owner of the store in a most
humble manner and softly explained that her husband
was very ill and unable to work, they had seven children
and they needed food.
John Longhouse, the grocer, scoffed at her and requested
that she leave his store at once.
Visualizing the family needs, she said: 'Please, sir! I
will bring you the money just as soon as I can.'
Standing beside the counter was a customer who overheard
the conversation between the two. The customer walked
forward and told the grocer that he would stand good for
whatever she needed for her family. The grocer said in a
very reluctant voice, 'Do you have a grocery list?'
Louise replied, 'Yes sir.' 'O.K' he said, 'put your grocery list on
the scales and whatever your grocery list weighs, I will give
you that amount in groceries.'
Louise hesitated a moment with a bowed head, then she reached
into her purse and took out a piece of paper and scribbled
something on it. She then laid the piece of paper on the scale
carefully with her head still bowed.
The eyes of the grocer and the customer showed amazement
when the scales went down and stayed down.
The grocer, staring at the scales, turned slowly to the customer
and said begrudgingly, 'I can't believe it.'
The customer smiled and the grocer started putting the
groceries on the other side of the scales. The scale did not
balance so he continued to put more and more groceries
on them until the scales would hold no more.
The grocer stood there in utter disgust. Finally, he grabbed
the piece of paper from the scales and looked at it with greater amazement.
It was not a grocery list, it was a prayer, which said:
'Dear Lord, you know my needs and I am leaving this in
your hands.'
The grocer gave her the groceries that he had
gathered and stood in stunned silence.
Louise thanked him and left the store. The other customer
handed a fifty-dollar bill to the grocer and said; 'It was
worth every penny of it. Only God Knows how much a
prayer weighs.'
Just stop right now, and say a prayer of thanks for your
own good fortune.
So dear heart, trust God to heal the sick, provide food for
the hungry, clothes and shelter for those that don't have
as we do.
May you always walk with Angels
God Bless!
