GOD PUT YOU IN MY WAY
The other day
I heard a story
A Catholic priest
Was telling the story of two travelers
One an African-the other an Egyptian
They did not know each other
The Egyptian encountered some problems
While traveling
And the African
Went out of his way to help
The Egyptian asked: “Why id you help me? You don’t even know me.”
The African responded: “I had to help. God put you in my way.”
When the Egyptian returned home-he found out
His former fiance’ had encountered some problems
The Egyptian went out of his way
To try and help her
His ex-fiance asked: “Why did you help me? You don’t even like me.”
He responded: “I had to help. God put you in my way.”
It made me think
About who has helped me in my life
Without any thought of ever getting repaid
I wonder if they thought:
“I had to help
God put you in my way”
WHO HAS GOD PUT IN YOUR WAY
