Saturday, March 7: Patti Hopper

John 7:6. [Jesus said], “My time has not yet come, but your time is always here.”

As I parked my car at the grocery store, I noticed a man sitting on the bench, surrounded by what appeared to be his belongings. After I got out of my car and headed towards him I told him there was a container of grapes on the front seat of my car and he was welcome to them. I suggested he put the container back in the car. He said, “My name is Herman,” and he smiled broadly and so I told him my name.

I went and did my shopping. When I returned the empty container was back on the seat. “Thank you Patti,” said Herman. I felt like I had a new friend.

My “time” to pass along the teachings of Jesus was, and is, always here.
