About a year or so ago, Selena and I were walking into the local Dollar Tree store. A young man, a drifter maybe, asked us for a couple of dollars for some food.
Now, we both figured he walked over there thinking he would never see us again, that we were just sending him away. But we remembered the times we had failed to see Jesus in front of us and feed him.
We made our purchase and headed to the restaurant. There he was, at the door waiting. As we went inside he asked me what he could get. I told him to get himself a meal, not to worry about the price. He ordered a regular meal and I followed to pay the bill.
As he sat down and thanked us I asked him his name. This young, Hispanic man responded..."Jesus". A shiver ran down my spine and tears welled in my eyes as we walked out the door.
God shows Himself to us in many ways. He may be the person you flipped off in a fit of road rage, or the elderly lady you held a door open for. Treat everyone as if they were God...for deep down, we all are. After all, we are created in His image.
