Last night at the store I was behind a young woman who had several things in her cart. She told the checker that she only had $27.00 (cash) and if she was going to go over that, she didn't want her celery.
Well, she got to the celery and had already rung up $26.00 (it appeared as if she were making homemade chicken soup as she had chicken, stock, noodles, etc) and so couldn't afford to pay for her celery.
She paid for her order and I said "I'll get your celery for you" and she looked at me and the checker looked at me, all very confused. I said again "I'll get the celery for you." She looked at me and said "Wow, Thanks a lot!"
It was $2.18.
Is that living the words I preach? Man I sure hope it is...

About Me
- Red Letter girl
- I work at a Christian School district only 4 miles from my home. The people there are full of grace and love and I am glad to be a part of this ministry. I have a neice and nephew whom I love dearly. They are 12 and almost 15 respectively. I have two amazing sisters and two amazing brothers-in-law. Of course, I would not be here if it were not for my mother agreeing to marry my dad. Good going mom! My parents are my life and I would literally be NOTHING without their unconditional love, support and care. You rock mom and dad. Then there's Will & Lora...their giggles are like sunshine and their parents crack me up too.
Twitter...see what I'm doing!

I'm proud of you red letter girl. Good job! I know for certain that you live HIS words everyday of your life. You bless my heart.
Pay it forward. I was the receipt of a "Pass the Cheer" in December at Starbucks. It was really nice and I was blessed to get a coffee. Way to go Heidi. Rita
Ok I'm seriously tired. I meant to say recipient not receipt. Must get more sleep. Rita
I miss you Rita! We need to get together for TACOS!! I will drive to Monroe :)
I would really like you to come see our new home. Miss you too. It really isn't too far in the woods to come to Monroe. I mean we are really moving up in Monroe. They just opened a Lowes. As a new home owner that is just like exciting. Hope to see you soon. Rita
