How would you respond if Jesus asked you to do the following?
I want you to quit your job and open a towel shop in town, called Divine Towels. In the store, I want you to wash the feet of people who are in need of all types of healing. If people have childlike faith and abide in me completely, I will allow my disciples to be a branch off my vine. While people have their feet washed, I will heal them in different ways according to My will. Some may be healed of their physical ailments or could be healed in other ways: being blessed with spiritual gifts and being empowered through the Holy Spirit to do mighty works or walking away feeling an overwhelming peace. Others will think differently and will have the ability to come up with unique solutions to complex problems.
I do not want you to charge people for the healing. However, you may accept donations for all services rendered. Do not worry about how you will run the store or pay the bills. Leave the details to me. I will be with you and will show you what you need to do. At first it will be difficult, but if you trust me and do as I say, I will bless you and you will see that the business will thrive."

Where did I get the idea for Divine Towels?
A question people often ask me is where did I get the idea for Divine Towels. The answer is simple… it began as a cry for help or an answer to a prayer. The fact is I had just earned my MBA and had gotten a job right out of school. By worldly accounts, I was living the American dream: working in corporate America, making a decent salary, and increasing the company’s bottom line. By worldly standards, I had a perfect life as well as a job that was quite challenging.
Although I had it made, as I as sat at my desk at work, I wondered if this was as good as life got and why had God put me here. In college, I had dreams of giving back to the community and serving others. I knew I had to work to pay the bills, however, sitting behind a computer 40 hours a week just felt like drudgery and certainly didn’t seem to fulfill that longing inside of me.
I felt bad for feeling like this but I couldn’t help it. I knew God had brought it to the forefront of my mind. I knew had to deal with it and there was no use trying to push it down. At this point, I prayed, asked God for guidance and soon heard a voice say, "My son, I call you to be a towelboy." And so the tale began...
