Clerk at Panera's
I decided to use the gift card my kids gave me from Panera's to purchase something fun for breakfast. The young clerk who helped me became highlighted to me by the Holy Spirit.
I felt the Lord was telling me that this young man was involved in worship, music somehow. I decided to ask him after he finished charging my gift card for my purchase.
It was busy in Panera's. I leaned over the counter and said to him, you are a believer, right?
He said yes. I asked if he was involved in worship, yes he said. I asked what instrument he played, he answered clarinet.
I placed my hand on his shoulder, and very quickly blessed him. As I prayed, I felt the Lord led me to pray for the sounds of heaven to come through his worship.
The young man was touched and blessed, surprised too, but blessed.
We parted. I went off to enjoy my treat. I pray C. was built up in the Lord and encouraged, expectant for the Lord to break into His worship in some way.
I write the way I do, with the details I add to demonstrate that reaching people with God's love, demonstrating the Gospel can be part of our life style.
I leave my house and often pray, "Lord, who do You want me to talk with today?"
I walk in expectation that God will interrupt my day by directing me to people in the market place, and sure enough, it happens.

Romans 10:14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
John 14:12 "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father".
