The Wind Under His Wings

I heard the gravel popping and I looked up from my work to see who was coming down
the driveway? I did not know the white truck coming down the road.
Taking the wielding hood off my head I reached over and turned off the wielder.
A big man was getting out of his truck as I walked out of the shop to meet him.
Hello, My name is Allen are you Jim? Yes I said can I help you? Well maybe he said
as he reach out his hand for mine, than with a good hand shake said the LORD sent me
hear to talk to you can we talk?
The LORD sent you I replied, you sure your not from the bank?
Laughing Allen smiled saying no but I have something good to tell you.
That’s a surprise I said because lately most everyone has bad news for me. I know he said
that’s why the LORD has sent me to you, is there some place we can talk?
Sure I said lets have a seat over here in the shade, its sure been hot lately! Can I get you
something cold to drink? I have some cold soda pops in the box would you like one?
Handing Allen a cold soda I ask him again, You say the LORD sent you how is that ?
Well Jim things happen like this to me a lot, you see GOD works in mysterious ways.
GOD has been talking to my heart about you for a week are so now as I had
to figure out who Jim the wielder is! GOD would talk to my heart trying to get me
to understand who you are and where you were. I am sorry it took so long!

Mr. Who are you? You say that the LORD has sent you to talk to me!
And then you had to figure out who I was and where I was, well here I am.
Now Mr. Allen I am a busy man and if I don't get this job finished the man from the
Bank will be stopping by here in a day are two! So please make sense if you will!
Who are you and what do you want?
Allen is my name and I am here to help you please let me for the LORD has sent me.
You see GOD has told me all about you, I know you are thinking who is this nut.
But please hear me out if you will I believe your life will change for the better.
GOD has blessed my life with insight to help others as he will send me to people as
yourself, but before he sends me he tells me of your needs.
Now Jim do you believe in GOD? Why yes I do he's up there somewhere I guess.
That’s good for Jim GOD knows you and wants you to learn you can trust in him!
How’s that I asked? What do you mean by that I said GOD knows me how?
If GOD sent you to me what did he say for you to tell me?
First things first Jim, Allen said do you mind if I was to pray before I began?
Go ahead I said it can't hurt anything I'll just listen to you OK! That will be find he said.
After a short prayer then Allen began talking about why he was here to see me.
Jim the LORD has told me he wants you to find a small church to attend, a place you
will become someone who help bring others to knowledge of the LORD and his love's
but first I have something for you . Then handing me a contract to read I began
looking it over as to my surprise it was a request for two sixteen foot trailers!
Holding out his hand Mr. Allen said I need the trailers and the LORD told me you were

the man for the job! Now Jim the work I need done is for a band, this group
sings for the LORD! And the LORD knew that you need the work. You see the LORD
knows are every need and will always supply our every need if we will only trust in him!
But the main reason I have come here today is for you, to ask you to give your life
over to the LORD and let him become the life you reflect in your life so you can help
someone else. Jim GOD has big plans for you if you will let him help you!
And Jim GOD has heard your prayers and has sent me to you that’s why I am here.
Mr. Allen I don't know how you knew that I have been praying to GOD for something
to happen are for a change for me in my life. I don't know who you are and where you
come from. But I have been talking to GOD asking for him to come into my life!
I don't know if he has ever heard me when I pray!
Well you do now Jim you do now! For he hears every time you talk to him from your
heart every time Jim every time. Let's pray;
Now Mr. Allen said one of the most heart felt prayers there that day that I think I
have ever heard in my life. Asking the LORD to bless my life and bring me into his will!
That through the work that the LORD does in my life will be a testomie to the world!
As I was standing there my mind some what confused not knowing what to say.
Mr. Allen said well how about it Jim can you help me out with the trailers?
Sure I said I'll have them for you in two weeks will that be alright with you?
Fine he said the band group will be here to pick them up then. And they will also have

a check made out to you for your work, will that be OK Jim?
Yes, that will be fine Mr. Allen I will have them ready to roll in two weeks from today!
By the way Jim there is a small church across the river will I see you there Sunday?
You know I said its been years sense I have been to church yes I'll be there I said.
Sunday morning came around and I went to church, everyone there made me feel very
welcome; I did not see Mr. Allen there, but the preacher talked that morning about
how GOD has angels that do his work here on earth for him. As the LORD will also
sometimes send people to talk to others who are angels in themselves.
I gave my heart and soul to the LORD their that day it was the greatest moment of
my life. I just could not wait to tell Mr. Allen maybe I would get the chance to see him
next Sunday. And maybe he would drop by and check on me.
Two weeks past by and sure enough I looked up and here came two pick up trucks down
the driveway; the members of the band paid me for the trailers and were happy.
Standing there as they left I wondered about Mr. Allen?
I wondered why I had not seen him at church our why Mr. Allen was not with the
members of the band that day. Then a cool breeze touched my face and as I stood there
looking up the driveway, and I knew yes I knew...
That cool breeze was The Wind Under His Wings
