Recently I spent the weekend working a booth in a psychic fair. For some I know that this might seem an odd thing to do; however, my reason is simple: The light shines brightest in the darkest places. I had the strongest sense that at this fair there would be souls looking for answers about life. What follows is the testimony of one of these people.
Her name is Cricket, and she wondered up to our tent on the second day of the fair. We were actually still praying for the day when she approached our little gathering. We warmly greated her with a good morning, and asked if she would like a spiritual reading. To which she said yes, and sat down.
We took a moment and asked God for a glimpse of Cricket as He knew her. Immediately I saw a field of wild flowers. After a few moments I broke the silence and shared with her that I had seen a field of wild flowers. I went on to tell her how yesterday I had taken water bottles and drawn pictures and written words on each bottle before I gave it out. I explained that I had drawn wild flowers on one bottle but never found the person who matched the reading.
The very next moment my friend John who was working the booth handed me the bottle with that reading on it and I handed it to Cricket. With a look of astonishment on her face she reached down a picked up her backpack and opened the front pocket and pulled out a packet of wildflower seeds.
I went on to tell her that I had a sense that through life she was like a wildflower growing in places that others found unacceptable. I told Cricket that the Creator designed that wildness in her. I told her that the He wanted to teach her the truth about herself. I shared with her that I heard God saying that it was okay that she felt wild at heart. That He wanted to be the one to show her where and how to plant her wild flowers.
The others in the group shared their own impressions with Cricket and she was equally touched.
