Wow, what a great story! I had a similar good samaritan thing happen the only time I ever had a flat tire.

Long time ago, I was delivering bedding plants in a medium size WI town (Janesville). At city speeds (20mph) I ran over something. I had my window down and heard a hissing noise. I was also in the left lane. By the time I rolled a few feet to the next turn off (into a large mall) the tire was completely flat.

I drove the few feet it took to be safely out of traffic in the mall parking lot. I got out and saw a razor blade sticking out of my tire!

To this day, I think some prankster put that blade in the street on purpose, sticking it in some road tar sharp side up.

Anyway, there was a Sears Automotive Center at that mall and I walked to it for help.

A very nice man walked to my van, and put on my spare tire.

I walked back and stood in line to pay.

The man at the register said it was no charge!

When I left the store, I insisted on giving the man who had done all that work a hanging basket of flowers for his wife.

That is my good Samaritan story.

It went from being scared at having a sudden flat, to glad I got help, to stunned that they wouldn’t let me pay for the help.

I think there are lots of Angels out there. They just hide until we need them.

Thats exactly what I thought. They tell us all the time that angels are all around us and I believe it. We don’t know who they are until they show up! Praise the Lord.
