Pleased

She was a visitor to the church. The Lord had worked mightily and lovingly in the lives of herself and her family, pulling them through extremely difficult and dire times repeatedly. So she shared with the church of His goodness.

There was many a dry eye as she shared.

As she finished, I felt I ought to text her, to encourage her. Actually I wanted to hug her, but she was seated too far in front - it would have been too obvious. So a text would have been the best.

I started the text and deleted what I had started and just wrote, "HE is pleased with you".

Now I don't lnow about you, but to me, that is such a strange thing to say. Or rather, I could think of something else that might have been better.....

But guess what - it was EXACTLY what God wanted her to hear!

That same morning, as she lay in bed, those same words came to mind. She almost dismissed these thoughts, telling them the Lord that if it was Him, then let Him confirm it....

Which is what that text was about!

It was hair-raising moment when she read the text!

God is fun! And yes, He was pleased.
