Before driving my semi I did my safety check and checked my fuel guage that showed more than enough fuel to get where I was going. On my trip I play gospel music and started praising and thanking God for him mercy. As tears ran down my face from his presence I look down at my gauges and my fuel showed empty. My though was no way. For I knew that there was more than enough fuel to make it when I started my trip. At the next exit was a truck stop so I pull in to check my truck. I pulled in to the pump and got out. At the same time a rig full of pigs pulled into the pump beside me. The smell was so strong that it made my stomach turn. The old dirty looking man got out of his truck as I began to fuel mine. He just stood buy his rig looking at me. Finally he started walking toward me as I stood by my truck fueling up. At that time my pump shut off and as I turned my back to him, to tend to my rig, he layed his hand on my shoulder and said, " Do not be afraid for God has chosen you. Go and preach!" As he lifted his hand off my shoulder I turned to speak to him and he was gone. When I say he was gone, I mean everything was gone! His truck and the smell of the pigs was even gone! To this day I can have comfort in knowing that God sent me a angel so that I can preach without fear knowing that God has chosen me.
