Everyday Grocery Store

I was shopping at our local grocery store at 11:00pm and in my pajamas where it appeared that all the 18- to 20-year-old employees were working.  As I pushed my cart around the store, I listened to Brandon talk about his future in the pickle aisle.  I got to the checkout where Chelsey rang up my items and Warren bagged my groceries. Whitney then came over with questions on how it was that I was a motivational speaker.  

I told my audience of three how I was given the opportunity to be on the radio and then gave a short impromptu example; “Grocery shopping one evening I realized the simplicity in following 1 Corinthians 13.  Take the time to be patient to listen and be kind to others, even though you are only there to get a pile of groceries.  This blesses not only someone else, but you even more!”  I finished and Whitney said, “That’s good. Can you do that ‘for real’ and use our names on the radio?”  So, here you go guys!  You matter and make a difference …everyday.
