Last Thursday I went to city hall to to pay for the CFC fee for putting an air-conditioner out in the trash.
When I got out of the car I went toward the ticket dispenser. As I was fumbling for change in my pocket a street person came up to me and asked for change. He told me it would most likely go for a drink. Honesty. I looked at what I had in my hand and gave him fifty cents. Not much but I wanted enough for the parking machine. He thanked me and moved on. I got to the machine and looked at what they wanted. Great, now I didn’t have enough. I opened my wallet and took out a tooney. Good for an hour and twenty minutes. My bussiness inside city hall took ten minutes. As I got back to my car I thought it ridiculous, I still had an hour on my ticket. I drove my car to the ticket machine and saw a man about to buy a ticket. I rolled down my window and asked him if his bussiness was going to take more than an hour. He said no, so I gave him my ticket. That day I blessed two people.
I wouldn’t have blessed the second without blessing the first. I asked God, “which one was I supposed to bless?” Perhaps both?
I chuckled to myself and drove home.
