Encounter with God

So, Hubby  and I are sitting down watching TV a little while ago and someone knocks on the door. (It is 9pm). A small, very attractive 65 year old Thai woman is standing there and she tells Hubby  her family has thrown here out for swatting the baby(she is a nanny, I am assuming).

She then proceeds to squat down in a very humble position. She needs a ride to her friends house. So, we invite her in. She says she is from Bangkok and her boys are there and she is here(she came here with a sister and her sister is dead now). She was so sweet. Her name was Mei Lee. She says she attends a Christian church but is also Buddhist. She said they are very kind to her.

Hubby  got his shoes on and took her to her brothers house. They stopped by to get her stuff at this family's house and picked up her things. They were out on the porch. He then took her to her brothers and he was grateful Hubby had brought her.

A friend who is a missionary IN Thailand happens to have an older Christian friend here near where we live who is FROM Thailand. We hope to connect them and maybe she can help Mei Lee. 

I felt humbled because she told us she sees us outdoors when she goes walking and felt safe coming to our door! What a God thing...  Pray that if we have contact with her again we can minister to her more if needed.

When things like this happen....I am in awe that God chose us to help....his followers who are completely broken and spilled out...
