A Genuine love of Christ
I have to tell you about this woman who came in to Target around Christmastime. She came in a day or two before my cousin Jason was to come home for a 2 week leave from Afghanistan. We somehow got on the topic of it while I was checking her out on register, and she brought up a relative she has also serving and she always adds anyone she hears about serving to her prayer list. So she asked his name and everything like that and I thanked her for the prayers and went about the rest of my shift. I kind of forgot about the incident until a month or so ago she come over to food ave and the first thing she said was "How's Jason doing?" It completely threw me off. The fact that she remembered who I was, who Jason was, and took the time to ask about him. She added that she was still praying for him. I then ran into her yesterday and again it was the same, "How's Jason doing? Have you gotten to talk to him recently" I think it was just amazing how much she cared for someone she barely knew (me) and a complete stranger (Jason) then she began asking about me and how I was doing and how she was going to add me to her prayers too. I think she is just an amazing example of the true love of Christ. I have now of course added her to my prayers and I look forward to the next time I see her. I love and enjoy her and it's nice to know there are still amazing people out in this world.
