January 9 - I can't remember her name


ree


Day nine.

In the store with all three kids. Two of them have tooth fairy money that they want to spend on sleep masks with funny sayings. #Priorities We get to the counter to pay for everything and I realize I'm going home after this and I haven't prayed for someone today. I ask the cashier if she'd let me pray for her.


Lesson Learned: I don't really think she wanted me to pray for her so I feel like I should give people permission to say "no thank you." Should I? I could say "You can totally say no but, I set a goal to pray for one person each day. Can I pray for you?" This is the deeeeeeep south and I'm just not sure anyone in this entire state has ever said "no" to prayer. Question is... do I want her to say no to prayer? ooo, dilemma.


But I digress... The kids were touching everything so I had to make it a quick prayer. I also did not pray for the woman who was leaving the store in a wheelchair so, that felt like a missed opportunity. As we were leaving my middle child yells "YOU PRAYED FOR SOMEONE MOMMY! THAT'S GREAT!" So, at the very least maybe I set an example for my sweet girl.
