Kroger's Thank You For Assisting Me In This Testimony. Look At This Picture, A Few Sprigs Of Lilies With 2-$20.00's Tucked Inside It. What Do You Think I Did With The $40.00? This Took Place On 6/12/19.

I was going to bake salted caramel brownies after work this evening. The recipe suggested sprinkling some sea salt on the top of the brownies after they cooled. All I had was coarse kosher salt at home so I stopped @ Kroger's to get sea salt (for baking that is.) As I entered the store I was walking by the floral department and noticed a bunch of lilies and tucked inside of them was at first I thought it was $20.00. I picked up the bunch of flowers and with closer observation there was actually two $20.00's folded together. No one was around in the floral department for me to inquire about the money situation. Then someone was there helping another customer so I went and got the sea salt thinking they would be done with the customer and then I could inquire. The clerk was no where when I went back to the floral counter.

It is time to check out and I have the flowers with the $40.00 tucked inside and my sea salt. As I walked around the store I thought maybe this was a blessing for me since I do plant seeds as Holy Spirit shows me to. Something inside me just kept nudging me to inquire if it was ok to accept this money and that is exactly what I did. I inquired of the young lady at the check out area and I briefly explained what happened and I did even mention what if it was a blessing to me for the times I plant seeds. She inquired of the front desk/customer service and was told I could not keep the money it was the store's policy so I graciously gave it back. Then I got this Holy Spirit idea. Go ask if I could take a picture of the flowers with the money tucked inside so I could write about this on my blog.

That is how this picture I am posting came to be. I then thanked the kind, young lady that helped me and I shared with her that returning the money is a far greater testimony to share on my blog then me getting $40.00. She inquired as to my blog and I then let her know that Holy Spirit does not have me tell people of my actual blog name. This has been many years now He has me doing this. He tells me that whomever stumbles on my blog was truly guided there for one reason or another.

In all honesty, if you are reading this blog then it is a true miracle that you found this blog. That is the hand of God guiding you. I think there are just a few people I remember ever sharing the name of this blog and that was years ago probably when I first started writing on my blog. The young lady @ Kroger's said if she finds my blog then she will know because she would then be reading it. I let Holy Spirit give me today's blog title in the event this young lady should happen to search and find this story.

I told you Holy Spirit adventures are fun. This is what happened earlier today. I woke up and felt a bit congested and my right ear seemed a bit blocked. Where did that come from? So I took some Airborne effervescent dissolved in water and then put a few drops of hydrogen peroxide in my right ear and guess what? No congestion today and my ear unblocked. To God be the glory. I needed some encouragement this morning so I listened to on "repeat mode" "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" by James W. Goll. That was the same music playing in my car after work. See, I did not go directly to the grocery store I had to stop and get my glasses adjusted. For some reason I felt compelled to stop at Stein Mart but I purchased nothing. Then off to Kroger's. I do believe it was all God's timing in this story. I now know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this was a test put before me and Holy Spirit was waiting to see what I would do. Well, I do believe I passed this test, reflecting on all of this now. Where the Holy Spirit is getting me ready to go to, there needs to be integrity. I do believe that was a test on keeping the money or inquiring if I can even keep the money. I would have bought the flowers with the money then.

Not only did I bake the brownies tonight, I also made part cherry and the other part apricot fruit oatmeal bars. This is a recipe my mom made for years and then I started making them years ago. No matter where I take these oatmeal bars people tend to like them. I am still on my quest to see the eagles soar in the sky. I think I am about to see some what do you think?
