As my dad and I were out and about today, we stopped at a coffee shop. There were the typical people there, a family with 2 small boys, a couple of people chatting, and a couple of others with their computers. Then an older man walked in. The barista greeted him by name. The man looked around for a bit, then approached the counter and said, “I guess I’ll just have my usual.” For some reason, this scene touched my heart. The young men behind the counter were so friendly and respectful to the gentleman. They knew him. I didn’t know being a regular was still a possibility as people come and go out of jobs so quickly. Anyways, it made me smile.

I Found God today in a friendly, knowing exchange.
