Why did you have to say you were kidding? This is actually the best suggestion so far!

I would've said "No, we both got the same message and he told you to give me 20 grand, not 20 dollars"

Agreed. Crazy person from the local asylum. Anyone who says "god told me" is really saying "I'm crazy as fuck"

She got out of her car, approached me and said, "I don't know why, but I am supposed to give this to you!" Then she handed me $20 and said "He (God) told me to! God bless you!"
I thanked her. She got back into her car and drove off.
Now, Christians would say she did it because of God, but she really did it out of the kindness of her heart.
What do you say about this kind of behavior?
Why would God want you to have $20 specifically?
We're you truly that destitute that you needed $20?
You already had two bags of groceries.
My guess is that the woman is either a deluded religious person who thinks God speaks to her.
By the way did God give this woman the $20 to give to you? Or did God ask this woman to give you #20 or HER money?
Another possibility is the the woman is part of an underhanded proselytizing movement where evangelists go around giving chimp change to people telling them that it came from God in the hopes that some of the people they do this to will be incited to turn to Christianity over a mere 20 bucks.
Christian - A moron who believes that an all-benevolent God can simultaneously be a hateful jealous male-chauvinistic pig.
Wiccan - The epitome of cerebral evolution having mastered the magical powers of the universe and is in eternal harmony with the mind of God.
Atheist - An ill-defined term that means something different to everyone who uses it.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
Clearly Jesus (a fictitious character or otherwise) will forgive people if they merely know not what they do
For the Bible Tells us so!

Believe me it is not an radom act of kindness, nor does God tell them to do it, it is a new teaching through the church, what they give is to come back to them ten fold. One thing about Christians, they do nothing for humanity unless it benefits them in some way.

Ah, so it's one of them investment cons. 
This one with an R.O.I., Return On Investment, of one thousand percent!
As a motive, that's not simply egotistical, that's plain avaricious!  hock:
And wasn't avarice one of the seven sins? Or something like that?
