The Stranger

We were on the road....again...and had stopped at a rest stop.  I keep a bag full of plastic grocery bags beside my seat to put in our car trash can.  When I got back into the car after going into the rest area, the bag fell out, along with a roll of paper towels I had in there.  

A man in the car next to us, got out and pecked on my window to tell me what had happened.  John boy and I both opened our door to get out and pick it up.  When John boy got out, he dropped a bunch of stuff he had in his lap.  Before we could protest, this wonderful stranger got down on the pavement, on his stomach and reached underneath the car to retrieve all of the stuff we had dropped.

I prayed an extra blessing on that man, I can assure you.  I want to be the kind of person who literally crawls underneath a car to help someone in need!
