We're here to help each other
After the soup was on simmer, I decided to drive to the nearby Christian Science Reading Room for some prayer and study. When I got there, sitting outside on a park bench, was an older gentleman I didn’t really know, but had seen at church. It came to me to go and sit down beside him and strike up a conversation. He told me he hadn’t been feeling very well lately and it had been several days since he’d eaten anything. I thought, “Maybe this is why God told me to make the soup.” Then I asked him if I could bring him the soup that was cooking on my stove. This made him very happy because he loved beans and this was the one thing that really appealed to him to eat. We arranged a time later that day and I brought him lots of soup and some for his freezer.
This experience taught me some great lessons on how God works through His angel thoughts to help, direct, and guide us when we put Him first and follow our highest sense of doing His will moment by moment. I have found over the years that by listening to my specific angel thoughts from God and following my highest sense of their direction that this is virtually the way God operates in our lives. These angel thoughts are constantly speaking to us in a way that we can understand and perceive them. That is why that morning, I gladly jumped at the opportunity to make the soup, even though it didn’t make much sense to store so much soup in my tiny freezer. I knew there was an upcoming adventure unfolding!
