Timing Is In The Hands Of The Lord
Our team went out to a local department store in search of our "Treasures". We split into two groups. One headed over to the garden department.
Just inside the garden section stood a cashier whose name matched one of names on our clues! We talked with her, explaining that she was the treasure we were here to bless her.
She was surprised and not sure how to take our announcement at first. Then we discovered while talking with her that she matched a second clue. She looked at out sheet and began to realize that the Lord had actually set this up on her behalf.
She agreed for us to bless her, specifically pray for her daughters. She explained a little then one of our team members began to pray and wow, up walks one of her daughters who just happened to drop by mom's work place!!!!
We were stunned at the timing. We explained to the daughter who was with her daughter, an elementary school aged child. She was amazed and taken aback. She was distant from the Lord and was not sure in the moment how to take what was happening. She received the encouragement but needed to leave to purchase an item for her daughter.
After the woman and her daughter left, the grandmother, our original contact, became teary eyed. She had just witnessed a demonstration of God's love and power, an answer to her prayers for her daughter. We were all impacted.
I love seeing God move. I love seeing God demonstrate His Kingdom love to people!

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".
