My son told me a story about a strange gift that he re-gifted. He made an unexpected stop at his shop in the middle of the day. When a Christian neighbor man knocked, Ron opened the door and the neighbor handed him a big box of Dum Dum lollypops. A few minutes later Ron jumped back in his truck, put the box on his seat and wondered.
His next stop was a man that he knew as a friend and business acquaintance. He sensed immediately by the man’s face that something was wrong. The man was grieving about a family tragedy that happened the night before.
Ron said he prayed for him and shared some scriptures to try to comfort him. When he got back in his truck he saw the box of dum dums, picked them up and took them into the man.
When Ron handed him the box the man began to cry. After he composed himself he shared that he just shared with his wife that he was going to get a box of dum dums for his grandchildren. That box spoke to him about God’s all knowing presence in a personal way.
Never be afraid to obey God, and be His deliveryman. Even when it’s a box of suckers to a grieving man.
