Last week I was riding my special mo?torbike and then stopped at a convenience store. As I was getting my wheelchair off the back,a man watched me from his car and I noticed a wheelchair in his back seat. We spoke for a moment and I asked him about the wheelchair. He answered that it was for his daughter. "Well,do you think she would like to go for a ride on my motorbike with me?" I asked. He seemed shocked that a total stranger would ask him this. He thought about it for a second and said, "OK,as long as I can follow you."
He introduced me to Amy and he sat her on my back seat. Her father followed me for a few miles and she talked nonstop about what she wanted for Christmas. As we came back to the convenience store,she said,"This ride is the best Christmas present I could ever receive. I have been in a wheelchair my whole life and didn't know I could do this."I told her about some of the other things I do (ski,travel the world by myself,etc.) . As her father was taking her off my motorbike* she turned to him and said, "Oh,Daddy,I'm going to be OK. Mr Bryant does all kinds of things,and I will too." Her father turned away as a tear of joy rolled down his cheek. He hugged me and said, "I was sitting here praying for a gift for Amy that would encourage her. She often felt that her life was dull compared to other children. God answered my prayer just now. Now I pray that God will bless you for your gift to Amy today."I believed what he said. Being kind and thoughtful to others,we can be an answer to prayer.
