Have You Been Jesus to Someone Today?

I read a story in "Stories for a Man's Heart" that I would like to share. It goes something like this: Five salesmen were at a conference and they had all told their wives they would be home in time for dinner after the conference was over. The conference ran a little late but each man hurried off to the airport to catch the train home.

They were in such a hurry that as they passed by a stand with apples set up by a boy one of them knocked the stand over.  They ran through the terminal and were just boarding their train when one of the men stopped and asked one of the guys to phone his wife and let her know that he would be late. He turned and went back through the terminal and out to where the boy's stand was.

Apples were scattered all over the area and the boy who was blind was on his knees trying to find them. The man bent down and helped him round the apples up. As he was placing them on the stand the man noticed that several were damaged so he opened his wallet and gave the boy a twenty dollar bill. As he turned to leave he heard the boy ask, "Sir, are you Jesus?"

I encourage you to take the time today to be Jesus in the life of someone by doing something out of the ordinary so that God can perform the extra-ordinary.
