One Good Deed

I wanted to share this with everyone…

Yesterday I received a blessing, it was such a surprise that I was left speachless. Even as I write this, I’m still blown away because things like this just don’t happen everyday. I was getting gas and the cashier was having difficulty getting my card to work, when out of the blue, a man from behind me stepped forward and told the cashier to give me ten dollars worth of gas.

At first, I was so taken aback that I didn’t know what else to say but, “Are you sure?” and the man replied, “Yes of course. don’t worry about it.” 

I told the man “Thank you.” and went to pump my gas. After I was finished pumping my gas, I was still in a stuper. For some reason I just didn’t know how to react. I felt bad, then guilty, then I don’t know… I just felt odd about it. I kep thinking, “am I supposed to feel bad when someone does something nice for me?” I felt bad because what if it had taken something away from him, what if he really needed it; these where the things going through my mind.

Finally, later on in the day, I figured that instead of thinking negatively about it, I would make it a positive. I would give back to someone like what had been done for me. The good man upstairs must have known that I really didn’t have the money to put gas in my car… because I was only going to use my last three dollars to get gas… but look at what happened, I got enough gas for me to finish out the week till I got paid.

Things like this don’t happen everyday. People have gotten greedier, tighter with their money (no thanks to the economy) and just a lot more stingeir and selfish.

But what if we could change that? What if we could make it a point to do at least one good deed a day? Take a ten dollar bill and mark it then give it to someone to help them out and tell them to pass it on to someone else who might need it. Do you think fate would come back to find you one day?
