A sorrowful woman, dressed simply, entered a supermarket, her face etched with worry. She approached the owner, requesting food on credit, explaining her husband’s illness and their family’s dire need. The owner, unmoved, refused, but the woman persisted, begging to pay later.
A customer, witnessing the exchange, intervened, offering to cover her shopping. The owner, intrigued, asked the woman for her shopping list. Instead, she hesitantly placed a piece of paper on the scales, which sank as if weighted by a stone.
The owner and customer were amazed, and the owner began adding food to the other side of the scales, but it wouldn’t balance. Curious, the owner took the paper, revealing a heartfelt prayer: “Lord, You know my needs, I leave this situation in Your hands.”
Moved, the owner gave the woman all the food on the scales, and she left, her face filled with gratitude. This poignant encounter highlights the power of faith and kindness, reminding us that even in difficult times, hope and generosity can prevail.
