Multiplication of Kindness

The owner of a drive-through coffee business in southwest Portland, Oregon, was surprised one morning to have one of her customers not only pay for her own mocha but also for the mocha of the person in the car behind her. It put a smile on the owner's face to tell the next customer her drink had already been paid for. The second customer was so pleased that someone else had purchased her coffee that she bought coffee for the next customer. This string of kindnesses–one stranger paying for the mocha of the next customer–continued for two hours and 27 customers.

That's how it is with God's love-it starts with his unexpected love for us, and then it is passed on to others, who in turn pass it on.
