As a saying goes, every bean has its black. It is impossible to make no mistakes all one’s life. My grandpa Nybakken, a carpenter, is no 36 . Several decades ago, he made a mistake — a(n) 37 mistake, though.
On a cold Saturday, Grandpa was building some wooden cases for the clothes his 38 was sending to an orphanage (孤儿院) in Congo. On his way home, he 39 into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone. So he drove back to the church. His search proved 40 . When he 41 replayed his earlier actions, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the cases. His brand new glasses, having 42 him $20 that very morning, were heading for Congo! He had to drive home 43 .
Several months later, the director of the orphanage came to give a report on Sunday night at my grandfather’s church, 44 Grandpa and his family also attended.
“But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the 45 you sent last year. You see, the bandits(土匪) had just swept through the orphanage, destroying everything, including my glasses. I was desperate.”
“ 46 I had the money, there was simply no way of 47 those glasses. 48 not being able to see well, I experienced headaches every day. Then your cases arrived. When my staff 49 the covers, they found a pair of glasses lying on top.”
Then, still gripped (吸引注意) with the 50 , he continued: “Folks, when I tried 51 the glasses, it was as thought they had been custom-made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that!”
The people listened, 52 for the miraculous glasses. But the director surely must have 53 their church with another, they thought. There were no glasses on their 54 of items to be sent overseas. But an ordinary carpenter was sitting 55 in the back, with tears streaming down his face.
