Dear God,

I didn't expect to see you at Walmart this morning.  With my list in hand at 6:00 a,m. I just wanted to grab my groceries and go.  But you had something else in mind.

By the time I left I found you in the black man by the freezer case, the older lady refreshing the produce aisle and the man with braids filling up the snack shelves.  Greeting one another like friends rather than strangers, I found myself saying, "We can change the world one person at a time if only for a few moments by being kind to one another."  The black man and I agreed to go out into the world and do it.  Wide smiles spread across our masked faces because our eyes danced as we talked.

Thank you,

Loving God,

for transforming us

in a

brief moment.

Thank you

for my

new friends.

Thank you

for the

amazing challenge.

Love, Andrea
