I've had a sore throat the past couple days and finally last night I asked Kevin to stop by the store on his way back from Basketball at the church to pick up some cough drops.
He got home with the cough drops and told us the cool story of how he got them. He went to the store and realized he didn't have his wallet but decided to go up to the cashier to ask if they accepted apple pay (because he had his phone with him). When he got up to the cashier with the cough drops they had no idea what apple pay was so he thanked them, said he'd go home and get his wallet and turned around to go put the drops back. The lady behind him stopped him and said not to worry about that and that she would pay for them. I couldn't believe it! Such a kind thing to do to a random stranger at the store. Kevin thanked her and allowed her to buy them for him. I'm so thankful for that lady's thoughtfulness.
Earlier in the evening when I had texted Kevin asking him to go to the store I was debating on even asking because I didn't want to spend the money on the drops and I thought I could suck it up and not need them but my throat was hurting so bad I ended up asking. It was such a tender mercy to hear Kevin tell the story, knowing that Heavenly Father guided that lady to make that act of service towards us.
Thank you random lady in Hyvee! You made our night and helped me be able to sleep through the night! :)
I'm so grateful for this tiny yet huge act of service we received. I'm more determined to listen to the spirit and act on those moments that I am given to serve someone. You never know what someone else is going through and how much a simple act of being kind could make their day.
