Halle-freakin-lujah, I've been saved....I think?!?!?!?!

Soooooooo, I'm at W@l-M@rt yesterday minding my own business, when I'm approached by a very large woman of a different race. Here is the conversation.

VLBW-Excuse me Ma'am you look like a christian.
ME-Nod head as I look for my green beans
VLBW-Well, I'm a born again Christian and the Lord has sent me here to pray for you.
ME-OKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY????
VLBW-Would it be okay if I prayed for you?
ME- I GUESS????????
VLBW-(grabs my hand)

Okay so those of you who know me, know I don't like to be touched, especially by strangers, so not only was it uncomfortable for her to be praying for me in the middle of W@l-M@rt, but to have her holding my hand too...NIGHTMARE!!!! I wasn't sure if I should cry, laugh, run etc...I did nothing, I just stood there.

VLBW-(begins to pray)Dear Lord, this woman needs your blessings and I can feel your power upon us(then the sound effects start) OH YA!!! MMMMMMHMMMMMMMMM, Praise the LORD, AMEN.....I FEEL YOUR POWER LORD.......BRING SOME MORE....OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH YAAAAAAAAA MMMMMMMMMMM HMMMMMMMMMMMM. OH, JESUS Bless this child.

ME-(thinking) What in the Freak is going on? How did I get here? I just want to get my green beans and get out of here. UM.......CRAP! People are starting to stare. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!! If she wasn't holding my hand I could make a run for it.

Just then a very large BM comes upon us and shoves a can of soup in her face and says, "I found it, let's go!!!"

VLBW- (to me) Oh, that is my husband, and he gets annoyed when I do this, but you can't stop the Lord's work, when you gotta pray for someone, it doesn't matter where you are.

ME-UH HUH!!!

Needless to say that will not be my W@l-M@rt of choice anymore. I don't even think I made it home with my green beans either. DANG IT!!!!

What sins have you been committing that she felt so strongly to pray for you right then and there?
