Lane Mikheil a senior adult ventured out of  his house during the corona virus pandemic to   get a few supplies at his local grocery store in  Georgetown Tennessee he’d been shut in for some   time but his disability check had finally arrived  and well just needed some food and staples and so   when he reached the checkout counter his bill  was 173 dollars as he counted his money he was   surprised to find himself thirty three dollars  short maybe you’ve had a similar experience it’s   an embarrassing moment well Mikheil quickly began  grabbing things to put back on the shelf but the

17 year old cashier stopped him her name was  iconically Elizabeth Taylor reaching for her   purse the teenager paid Mikheil total bill out  of her own money when someone asked her why she   did it Taylor said it was all essential stuff she  said we’ve seen a lot of older people and they’re   all trying to buy groceries and a lot of places  have run out of the stuff and so the older people   are kind of taking the downfall for that I just  wanted to give back when I could you know life   often catches us short it’s embarrassing to find  ourselves needing help but we all need all the

you you can trust the Lord he’s awesome we feel  small and insignificant but the psalmist assures   us that God bridges the gap he is never too great  to care and we are never too small for his caring   the psalm reflects on a God who soothes us in  our anxiety and watches over us as a shepherd   with his sheep as you hold your Bible open to  this wonderful chapter you find these important   words in superscription at the very top says a  song of a sense what does that mean well there   are 15 of these special Psalms and the first of  them is Psalm 128 Junt days the Israelites would
