I was talking to a lady earlier today and she reminded be of something that happened a couple years ago, due to the fact of a Celtic cross she was wearing. As I said, a couple years ago I had purchased a Celtic cross, it comforted me during one of the lowest times in my life. I know it was a symbol but it was also a reminder. I was going through a divorce and I really didnt care what happened to me next, bu I would see the cross or hold it in my hand and I gained strength to keep going. One day at work I was working with another technician on some aerial cable. An elderly lady came out and was concerned her phone would stop working. I tried to assure her it would be okay and that I would check her phone before we left for the day. So we finished our work and as promised I walked to her house and knocked on the door to check the phone. She opened the door and let me in, I could tell she had been crying, I checked the phone and showed her it was working. I asked her if she was okay and if there was anything I could do to help. She asked if she could play something for me and I said of course. She pushed the button on her answering machine and it was a female voice, it played until the end and finished with I love you mom. She began crying and through her tears told me that a year ago her daughter had passed away and that was all she had left was that recording. I put my arm around her and tried to comfort her. I knew there was nothing I could do but I knew that God could I took the cross that helped me so much and handed it to her, she refused it at first saying she couldnt take it. I told her it was okay and finally she put it on. I gave her a hug before I left and I saw her looking down at the cross and smiling and knew it was in Gods hands. The moral of the story is if God can use me at one of the lowest points in my life imagine what He can do at our best. Be nice you never know who you might help.
