Everyday Grace

Moments that Motivate with Tim Lovelace

I’ve been blessed to see so much of America in my lifetime. Not just the big cities, but small cities that most people have never seen, are some of my favorites. One such place is Cave-In- Rock, Illinois. The town has a cave located beside the river, thus the name. Some movies have been shot there, such as “How the West Was Won” and “Tom Sawyer.” And unless you want to take the long route, the closest way to Cave-In-Rock is to take a ferry across the Ohio River. I’ve crossed on this ferry many times. For safety reasons, they have you turn off your engine, and I love to roll down the windows and breath in the river breeze and hear the small splashes on the ferry.
When properly docked on the other side, the ferry attendant motions to which cars he wants to exit first. On one such trip, the lead car was motioned to drive forward. He started his car, panicked, put it in reverse and gave it gas. Wham! He hit the car behind him. With windows down, I heard the girl who had just been hit scream. The driver and passenger of the lead car slowly opened the door. They were an elderly couple who both seemed to be in very poor health. Worry was all over their faces. The lady who was hit never got out of her car to look at the damage. She had already looked at the precious couple walking toward her. She leaned out her window and said, “Don’t worry about it. It’s okay. Just drive carefully.”
What kindness! Everyday grace is something we could all give and receive more of.
