PROVOKED
Friday, July 06, 2018
It is a wonderful
thing to be provoked by kindness.
Anyone that has
observed me sees a bit of wobbling and tremoring, the result of genetics and
mileage. As I delightful consequence I experience a level of kindness beyond my
vigorous physical past. And I am greatly heartened and wonderfully provoked by the
thoughtfulness. Not a day goes by without the blessedness of planned or spontaneous
benevolence. Yesterday was no different.
Unbeknownest to me
the young couple followed me as I pushed the flat bedded Home Depot cart to my
SUV. As I opened the rear hatch they stepped before me and without a word
lifted the heavy jackhammer and tooling. Then as quickly as they appeared they wordlessly
turned and walked away as I thanked them.
Arriving home my
ever watchful helpful neighbor took the jackhammer in hand and completed the
concrete busting task, then assisted in disposal of the fragments. Then his spouse,
a talented landscaper, discussed a very nice easy care perennial planting and
promised to go with me to make the selections.
It is a wonderful
thing to be provoked by kindness. (Heb.10:24)
EBB4
PS. Aren’t most instances the result of planning to be spontaneous
when opportunity presents itself? A matter of attitude.
