When I was in high school a group of girls sat in the cafeteria with their Bibles and tried to convert a few cute boys. I sat with them and heard them talking about baptism. I had not been baptized. Finally, one day I told one of the girls that I wanted to be baptized. She said, "Oh, we weren't even thinking of you!!" She arranged for me to be baptized that night. Their words to those boys did not return void.
I always enjoy the stories of those who choose to respond to the work of the Spirit ... in this case, hers and yours. When we "walk in the Spirit" we remain aware and available for His work for the good of the kingdom. Blessings!! ... and thanks for sharing your story.
I enjoy seeing people doing the work of the Spirit. I track how God is leading me by seeing all the people who have a help getting me to where I am now. They may not realize the Spirit was leading them to say what they said or did, but they have been a blessing many times in Carol's and my life.

The Spirit works on tender hearts while their message was directed at hearts that were not ready. Some day, the message may register with them
