Infusion, I discovered a small cafe just down
The street.
I ordered a cup of coffee, half decaf, and instead
Of a sausage biscuit, I settled on a cup of fresh
Fruit.
As I sat at a table I pulled out my Bible to
Make good use of my time.
A friendly lady walked by.
She worked in the building.
I noticed the silver cross around her
Neck and her name tag: Marti.
And she noticed me.
"Are you reading your Bible?" she asked.
"Yes."
"I love to see people studying the Bible."
We bonded immediately.
We were spiritual sisters.
We shared warm conversation and I
Shared a tract and my grief booklet.
Since she works with cancer patients,
Perhaps the booklet will be useful.
I learned that each day my new
Friend prays for a divine appointment just
Like I do.
Marti and I parted with a hug.
We concurred that today we were the
Answer to each other's prayer.
