I
usually take a nice long walk in the mornings. I even jog part of
it. But today I had an interruption. A person came by and then
came back and started to talk to me. He is a very troubled person
who I knew. He really just wanted someone to rabble on to. He is
not a part of the church I pastor. He talked and even quoted the
Bible to me at various points. I am sure I was not help to him. I
may have even be a source of frustration to him. But what bothered
me the most was that I had no time to myself. I need that time to be
in prayer and get my strength to carry on for the day.
Reflecting
on my experience I came to two conclusions. 1) There are hurting
people all around. 2) All people need God’s love. So, the rest of
today I am going to be kinder and more loving to all.
