IHOP - Be Like Christ


After Stephen got home last night we both decided we were craving IHOP. When we arrived at our destination, the hostess commented and said "I like your shirt!" to me that said Be like Christ. For some odd reason, I felt that that was the shirt I needed to wear out! When she shows us to our booth, she told us that Brandon would be our server and that she gave us his section because he wasn't making nearly as much as the other servers that night.

Brandon, a nice young-looking guy, came and took our drink order and later our food. He gave us incredible service! He was very attentive without being pushy or invading our space. Stephen and I decided that we would leave him a really good tip.

When we were heading out to leave, the look on Brandon's face was priceless! He was talking with the hostess that seated us and he said, "Thank you so very much!!" and she said, "God bless you!"

So the main points I am trying to make about telling this story is how amazing it is to be able to give and help other people; now I am not talking about LOANING money, but being able to GIVE money. That is one of the main things Dave Ramsey talks about....is to be able to give and help people out. My other point is, it's amazing how God works and can bless us through other people and vice versa.

The Lord is strong and mighty! He is my Jehovah Jirah, My Provider. :)

Blessings!
