...mirror of God's goodness

"By this everyone will know 
that you are my disciples, 
if you love one another.” 
- John 13:35 (NIV)
Went out for an errand to a drugstore. While waiting, I took the chance to ask for directions to a place I still have to go... Warm smiles were on the faces of the assisting clerks as one kindly gave the direction. However, still yet not too confident of the directions received, a clerk sensing my uncertainty gently whispered: Sister, I will show you where it is. I am coming with you.

I was so touched by this concrete experience of God's goodness mirrored by an-other. I feel grateful. I am happy. God touches in ways we least expect. We just have to open our eyes to see and perceive his Presence concretely manifest in all, in everything.
