Ep.138 How the Holy Spirit Helped Me with a Rude Employee at Wendy’s

In this story-time episode, I’m sharing a real moment where I had to fully depend on the Holy Spirit to keep me grounded—in a Wendy’s drive-thru of all places. After receiving the wrong order and being met with rudeness from the employee, I felt anger rise up… especially with my kids watching from the backseat. I returned the food, expecting a refund, only to find out days later the money wasn’t even returned.

Everything in me wanted to react the old way—rude for rude, petty for petty—but the Holy Spirit reminded me of James 1:19: “Be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry.” In this episode, I walk you through how God helped me choose patience over pettiness, conviction over confrontation, and wisdom over impulse.

I also share the scriptures that helped me extend forgiveness (even when I didn’t feel like it):

• Ephesians 4:31-32
• Matthew 6:14-15
• Proverbs 19:11

This episode is a reminder that even in frustrating, everyday moments, the Holy Spirit is present, guiding us to choose peace over pride. Tune in and be encouraged—you’re not alone in the struggle to respond like Christ when it’s so much easier not to.

Prayer of Salvation

If you’re ready to invite Jesus into your heart and begin a new life in Him, please pray this prayer with me:

"Dear God, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I admit that I am a sinner and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son, and that He died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for loving me and giving me eternal life. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen."
