Andy

Today I went to Target in Vista and met Andy. Andy was the nicest and friendliest cashier I have ever met. I took the hangers off the clothes I purchased (something I always do and don't think twice about) and he thanked me profusely. I hadn't noticed at first, but he seemed to have some sort of handicap and didn't have much use of his left hand from what I could tell. I guess that would make it hard to remove the hangers which is why he was so grateful. As he rang me up, he began to tell me little sayings (ex. it is greater to give than receive; do unto others what you would have done until you) and through them sharing his love for God. He asked me if I knew what the following initials meant:

B.I.B.L.E - Basic Instructions for leaving Earth
C.H.U.R.C.H. - (I forgot what that one was)

What does three nails and one cross equal - 4given.

He said some other things too and was very encouraging. I found his bold faith to be remarkable and memorable. He didn't know I was a fellow Christian, but he wanted me to know how much God loved me. Andy was living out something we talked about in church today - serving God in all areas of our life. Here is Andy - a cashier at Target - who loves God and wants other people to know God loves them too. Andy reminded me that we don't have to go to another country to be a missionary. We just need to ask God how we can bless others around us and be used where we are.
