Unexpected Strangers
Imagine you were an expert mechanic working on your car and along comes a stranger and tells you what you should do to fix it. What would you think and how would you feel? At the very least I'd question the stranger's reliability.
Unfortunately, it is true that we can't trust everybody and we need to be on our guard against deceptive and dishonest people. At the same time we never know who the stranger is that has crossed our path. He/she may be an angel unawares. Or he/she may be a person in need of a helping hand, an encouraging word, or just "a cup of cold water."
Dear God ...

Dear God ...
eyes to see ...
ears to hear ...
and a heart ...
to sense ...
so that ...
I will know ...
when you have sent ...
a 'stranger' ...
to me ...
in my hour of need ...
or ...
if you have brought ...
into my life ...
a person ...
in need ...
of a helping hand ...
or a touch from you ...
Thank you for hearing and answering my prayerz.
