surprise!

I have recently been doing a marvelous Bible study with a very dear friend. We do a daily study on our own and then try and meet up once a week to discuss the study and what God has been doing in our lives. It's a time I treasure very much. Yesterday we met during our lunch breaks. I am essentially broke and brought my lunch to work and ate it so I wouldn't have to spend any money. We settled on meeting at starbucks. Traffic was pretty heavy yesterday. (Throw a little precipitation around and people go nuts on the roads) I was just waiting on my friend to show up. In the mean time, I re-read part of my study just to refresh my mind about some of the quotes that stood out to me that week. The couple next to me got up to leave and the woman looked at me and said, "I really like that book you're reading. Here's five dollars, go buy yourself a cup of coffee." I tried to refuse the money but she insisted and so I accepted. How amazing is God! I pray God blesses that woman ten-fold for that tiny act of completely random kindness that she showed toward me. I wish there was a way to do the same for her. God takes care of His children.
