I feel compelled to blog again, yet I have no idea what about at the moment. I'll keep typing and hopefully something will come up. I know I have things to discuss with the non-existant audience that is the internet...........

Well I hate to be a bummer but I did want to mention this experience I had at Starbucks the other day. I was sitting with my friend Derek, enjoying our hot + cold beverages when a man came in the shop who was clearly homeless. I started to ponder about this scenario, when a Starbucks barista went over to the man with a coffee and a chocolate chip cookie. She told him they were from "the woman in the red coat" (this woman had by now left the shop). I was pleased at this spectacle, until I heard the man say that he didn't want it. He wanted a green tea instead. He wanted a green tea instead?? Wow. I heard him and the barista discussing "spreads" as well and then noticed she took back the coffee and the cookie. This leads me to believe that he wanted something instead of the cookie as well. Now this became a conundrum for me. I believe that when someone could use some help or some benevolent act we should not judge or criticize, but offer our assistance. However, in this situation the dude was clearly was taking advantage of this kind woman (who, I'm assuming, thinks positively on the situation since she was not there to hear of the man complain of her gift) and this guy was not grateful or appreciative, clearly.
This bothered me for a day or two. Then I remembered something I should not have forgotten: no one sins against another person. People sin against God. And God deals with that. Therefore, however much this would bother me personally (if I had been the one to be so kind) I just have to keep doing what is right. It's not my place to deal with others' sins. God is great, isn't He?

I think that is all I have to say for now. I'm sure I'll blog again soon.
Peace!
