Then one of those crazy thoughts bounced into my head. If I was my wife,
I know exactly where I would go. She isn't known as the Thrift Store 
Queen for naught. At least, this was something to do. 

The police department is at the beginning of a long line of shopping
stores for over a block. Perhaps along that line, there was a thrift 
store. My only problem with that, I would have to walk the whole 
distance. 

As I was standing there thinking of what to do next, a woman passed by,
and I stopped her and said, "Ma'am do you know if there's a thrift 
store nearby?" 

She laughed and said, "Yes, but it's usually just for women." And she
laughed some more. 

Smiling as I looked at her, I said, "Where would that thrift store be?" 

"What are you looking for," she asked, "maybe there's one I could direct
you to." 

I was nervous, but without thinking I said, "I'm looking for a wife." 

"Well," she said laughing, "a thrift store is the best place to find a
wife that I know of." 

Then she pointed up the row and said there was a thrift store at the end
of that line. She added, "You'll find a lot of wives in that store so 
that you can make your own choice." Then, walking away, she laughed 
hysterically. 

From where I was standing, I could see something that looked like a
thrift store way down at the end. So I started walking and when I 
arrived at that thrift store, guess who was inside? 

On our way home, I couldn't help but think of the Bible verse in Isaiah
41:10. “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am 
thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will 
uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” 

No matter what my fears might be, I know that God is going to guide me
through that situation for his honor and glory.
