so i was standing at a bus stop in TST at around 3 am. (don't ask me why i was there at 3 am) i had been waiting for the bus for quite a while now and so my feet were getting a bit tired. i saw a taxi pull up about 10 feet back from where i was. a man with crutches was basically stumbling out. in my head, i was thinking that someone should help him out. the only problem was that i was still standing there.
then a group of 20somethings came out of the building there, and one of the girls, who i think is a massage girl, stopped when she saw the man struggling to get onto the curb. she immediately, and i do immediately, went over to help the man out. she told her friends to go on without her, and proceeded to (from what i can see) help this guy get to his flat.
when i was first thinking about someone helping the man, i was just thinking about helping him out of the cab. she took him all the way to where he needed to go.
Immediately was what amazed me. She didn't have to think about it at all, or what her friends were doing. It was something she just had to do.
It wasn't the young guy that goes to church every sunday that helped this man, but a massage girl who works in TST.
at first, i was a little ashamed that i didn't do this, but was relieved to see that despite my disobedience, God's work still got carried out.
He's good like that.
