Grocery Store, Familiar Face ❤️

Small joys count too! ✨

Scripture For Today: "Give thanks in all circumstances."

1 Thessalonians 5:18

You ran into an old friend at the store today.

It made you smile for the first time in days.

Maybe you've been feeling lonely lately and this small moment reminded you that you're not invisible.

God sent that person at just the right time.

Yes, He did.

Today we honor Saint John Paul II.

He traveled the world visiting 129 countries because he wanted to meet people face to face and tell them God loves them.

He knew that sometimes just showing up matters.

God sees you in the checkout line.

He sends you little gifts of friendship.

Today's Prayer: For Unexpected Joy

Lord, I saw a friendly face today,

It stopped me in a gentle way.

I've been so lonely, feeling small,

Thank You for this simple call.

For reminders that I'm not alone,

For seeds of kindness You have sown.

Help me notice all the ways

You show Your love throughout my days.

In parking lots and grocery aisles,

You give me reasons still to smile.

Amen

Think of someone who smiled at you this week.

Say their name out loud.

God used them to remind you He's near.

You're allowed to celebrate the small things.

Holding you in prayer,
