Church at Chick Filet??

so yesterday i wanted Subway for lunch but my sister called and asked me if i would go to Chick Filet and pick up lunch and take it to her salon so we could eat together. being the nice little sis i am i said sure. :) (ok i begged for Subway cause my heart was set on it but she won) ... anyways, i pull up to a line of about 15 cars! not cool! but as i sat there patiently waiting, the line moved fairly quick.
so, i'm sitting there and suddenly a man walks up and quietly taps on my passenger window. normally i would have just ignored the psycho who probably wanted to kill me or hitch a ride or something crazy like that but this time it just seemed ok. so i rolled down my window. the man suddenly had giant tears in his eyes and could barely speak. i just waited. i realized that this was something good. a "God Thing"! he said 'mam... i have a word for you from the Lord. he seemed a little timmid as if i was going to call him crazy and think he was insane. i know it must have been hard for him because how many people just walk up to random cars to give a word from the Lord to someone in a fast food drive through! i knew this man was stepping out in faith. i said ok sure... This man began saying things that i know were only from God! it was amazing. the things he said were complete confirmation to me and im so thankful that this man obeyed God.
This man taught me a great lesson yesterday. i want to be so in tune with God and so focused that even when i'm out and about doing my regular daily things i can still listen to His voice and be obediant. it makes me wonder how many times i've passed up an opportunity to be used by Him. how many lives could i have touched by simply following direction. Thank you Lord for your word and for reminding me that i need to be more focused.

side note: i gotta give props to Chick Filet cause there chicken sandwich was bomb!!

Thanks for sharing Lori! God has the right to interrupt our lives anytime He wants. we usually just ignore him when he try's.
