Fran took a sip of her coffee and stared across Highway 86. She had opened the largest bread store in the small town of Southwind Texas. Since opening two months ago, sales had been fantastic and people were flocking to her store. Anger and frustration set in when she found out that another bread store was going to open just across the highway.
What made her angry was that her childhood friend Wilma Anderson was opening the store. They played together as kids until one day Wilma told her that she had become a christian. She was not and they quit spending time together. She could not believe that she was having her grand opening on a Saturday. That was the day that her sales were the highest.
On the day of Wilma's grand opening, Fran did not notice a dip in sales. She decided not to worry about Wilma's store.
After a couple of months, Fran noticed a small amount of customers were going across the highway to Wilma's store.



Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric.
