Mystery Man Market bag

Here is the story behind this bag:
On Tuesday I took dear daughter to one of the temp agencies so she can continue her job search. I stayed in the truck crocheting while she was inside.
I am in the process of making a very bright bag from orange and a red heart yarn called mexicana. vibrant bright colors.
Anyway sitting there with the windows down, radio on and a man walks toward the truck down the sidewalk. He is scruffy looking. needs a shave, clothing a bit torn. he stops and says he likes my truck, and I tell him we do too thanks.
then he notices what I have in my hands. he asks if he can come closer to look. I had no problem with it. he came over and asked what I was crocheting. So I explained what it was. He said he really liked it. I told him I wished it was done I would have given it to him, and he said no, there is another plan for that bag, you just do not know yet what it is. he then placed his hand on the bag, closed his eyes a moment, then shook my hand, said God bless and walked away.I turned around to say goodbye and he was gone...no where to be seen.

Today I finished the bag.

Isn't it funny how "GOD" just shows up at the moment when you would least expect HIM to? Has your bag found a purpose yet? Would love to know. Thanks!
btw, really great bag!
