Today was one of those days you just want to curl up on the couch with a blanket and good book. Unfortunately, I had to brave the rainy/snowy weather to take care of some stuff on campus and was so distracted, I forgot both my umbrella and rain jacket. After I walked all the way to Henson Hall in the freezing drizzle, I started back to my car only to get stopped at every crosswalk along the way. As I was waiting to cross Cumberland, I heard someone run up behind me saying "Oh my goodness, you're getting soaked!" and let me share her umbrella. As we waited for the light to change I asked her what her name was and she told me it was Abby. We shared the umbrella all the way to my car, making small talk about the weather and classes. As she walked away, I was struck with thankfulness for the little moments from the Lord of provision and love and realized how much little acts of kindness matter.
Thanks for sharing your umbrella today, Abby! I hope you know you made my gray day a little brighter.
