Joyful

What a wonderful day I had today!! I enjoyed chatting with an older lady,Arlene who came and sat next to me in the library. I was there to spend some "quiet time" with God by reading the word (Bible). Needless to say, it was not quiet. However, I managed to tune out the crying babies, and continued reading and praying, until the lady asked," what ever happened to being quiet inside the library?" We chatted for an hour about her life, and how things were when she grew up. I shared some things about my upbringing and she seemed so please to have met me. Later, she left and went out the door. I stayed behind and continued reading for thirty minutes, then I left the library. Thank you Lord for using me to lift someone's spirit today. She came in, not feeling well and I just wanted "quiet time" with You. I'm glad that I served her needs before my own. Thankful that I was cordial and not in my own world, too busy to see hurting people. I love you Lord, this random meeting gave me joy as well as Arlene. Thank you for using me to touch the lives of others in a unique way.
