People amaze me

[1trinity]

At work today I had a homeless guy come up to my register. He had a backpack with everything he owned inside and a sleeping bag. He was buying toothpaste and a toothbrush that came out to be $2.53 which he paid in change. As he started to walk away he looked at me smiles and says I have more than a dollar left! He was so incredibly happy. A little later he came back he had gone to the deli and got some potato salad and a piece of chicken his total was $1.06 and he had $1.36 He again smiled and told me to keep the extra .30 cents. How amazing is that. I of course gave the money to him and told him to treat himself to a soda. He looked at me with so much happiness and said thank you April have a wonderful night. I just wanted to hand him everything that I have. This man made me think. I have never thought of myself to be a wealthy person I work hard for everything that I have. And there is so much more that I want. But this man was very wealthy tonight and he only had $3.89 he had everything that he needed and more than he wanted. Him offering that 30 cents was like someone else offering thousands of dollars. I saw Jesus through him. I have no idea what his story nor do I want to know but I do want to be more like him. We live in a very material world. We want the best, most advanced of everything. We have to be on top. I have worked in retail for five years selling many different items. I have never seen someone so happy and all he was buying was dental hygiene and food. I use to sell sunglasses that were $400 just because they were Oakley. People would buy 3 or 4 of these at a time handing money over like it was nothing, hardly ever would I get a smile or a thank you have a nice night. It really makes you think.
Thank you God for all that you have given me I truly am wealthy in every aspect.
