I was at work at a summer job at a repackaging plant and went off on lunch break only to realize that I had forgotten my lunch money and I would have to go the day hungry. Suddenly God spoke to me and told me to walk up to the vending machine (it was the kind that had sandwiches and other things). I did it and without warning the machine spit out a $5 from the slot! I totally freaked! I took it. There was another man standing next to me at another vending machine and he ordered a box of cereal, however it gave him 2 and he asked if I wanted one! I said yes! I used the $5 bill to buy a sandwich and a bottle of milk for the cereal and I was well-fed for the rest of the day!

Praise God!
and yet what if it was a test all along .
How so you might ask .
What do YOU think would be the right thing to do in the sight of GOD .
IF a man was selling you cereal
and you paid him for one box and yet took another box , how is that being honest .
The correct thing for the man who got two boxes of cereal
might have been to say something about the machine spitting out two .
And perhaps even offer up some money for the second box that he could then have given
to this other man .
You would be suprised . DO unto others as you would have them DO to you .
Just a friendly reminder . as far as the free five dollar bill .
Well unless he knows WHO put it into the machine he would have no way to repay that .
B ut always remember we shall be tested in this world and often many might see something as a blessing
and yet do that which was not right IN the sight of GOD .
Not to accuse , only to remind us dear sister .
