At one stage this afternoon I was not going into town for my coffee.

It is cold here in New Zealand in winter; it is raining, the sun is shining, it is raining again, and then we have rain and sunshine at the same time.

“A YAWN IS A SILENT SCREAM FOR COFFEE.”

My raincoat is always in one of my pockets, but today I started to wear it before I left the house. Entering the Main Street, and walking along the street for a bit I heard singing. It is not unusual that people are busking on Commerce Street. But coming nearer to the singing today and wondering what it is all about I noticed a young lady there singing and she had a Bible placed in front of her.

Seeing the Bible, I stopped and we had a really good conversation.

What an encouragement for me to hear her singing on a day like this, praising the Lord Jesus Christ with a loud voice.

Am I glad that I made my way to the coffee shop today. And do you know what I noticed on my way back, when I almost arrived at our place, all the time I was walking outside, it did not even rain. With other words there was no need to wear my raincoat.
