I was walking to a coffee shop when I heard this lady poppin’ off about her car being towed. She and her daughter were visibly stranded, but between the crazy yelling, the fact that i really had some work to do and a verse i recently read in proverbs that basically says “mind your own business,” i kept walking... for about 10 ft, and then i stopped and thought “this is not about minding your own business, you can help, it’s your privilege to help.” I walk over to them, the lady is straight up screaming on the phone, so i give her daughter my number and tell her to call if they need a ride to the tow yard. They call me, I give them a ride, it was all of 30 min out of my day. I write this to say, i almost didn’t stop, just because society says i don’t have to, i thought, “they are grown women, they’ll figure it out,” but i swear to you, God checked me, and i remembered LOVE IS PRACTICAL, and i thought of all the times people have helped me. I hope you know I’m not looking for Eagle Scout approval, just want to remind us all to pause before we pass judgment, and know that the moments we can help others aren’t always going to look perfect. Sometimes they come with a hard day and a bad attitude, but it’s not about us, it’s about an opportunity to love. I don’t live a life of service everyday like some folks I admire, but I know God gives us chances to be love, even if it seems weird or uncomfortable. So, let’s get a little weird and uncomfortable with our love.
