The other day while shopping picking out grapes I noticed a lady bug in the bag, I allowed her to crawl onto my hand and my shopping companion got a plastic bag in which we placed her to carry her outside when we left. She went on our shopping tour with us.
When we got to cash out the customer in line beside us said "are you carrying your pet" ... no I replied "a lady bug we are going to free". When we left I placed her on a plant leaf outside hoping she would be safe.
Upon washing grapes at home there was a second one whom I released here feeling badly that maybe a couple had been separated! .... the grapes went into the fridge and I hope no one was calling that they needed a scarf and mittens! .. simple acts of kindness apply to all God's creatures.
