Introduction
On the recommendation of a close friend, I recently started binge watching a show called “The Kindness Diaries” on Netflix.
It follows a man named Leon as he travels from Anchorage, Alaska all the way to Argentina, travelling with nothing but the clothes on his back and an often unreliable VW Beetle that he calls “Kindness Two.”
The premise of the show is that Leon is making his travels solely based off of the the kindness of others.
He cannot accept money, only food, shelter, and gasoline because he claims that he has “faith in human kindness.”
In other words, Leon trusts that the people that he encounters will provide exactly what he needs, exactly when he needs it.
I’m not quite sure where Leon draws his sense of faith from, but his actions serve as a pretty strong witness of how strong that faith actually is.
While I wish that I quite shared Leon’s “faith in human kindness,” I admit that I often don’t.
And I’m okay with that, because I believe that God provides for us.
In fact, through Scripture and through life I have witnessed first-hand the many ways in which God provides, but I find perhaps no better example of this than in the story of Abraham.
