A young and success fu l execut ive was t rave l ing down a

ne ighborhood s t ree t , go ing a b i t too fas t in h i s new Jaguar.

He was watch ing for k ids dar t ing out f rom between parked cars

and s lowed down whenhe thought he saw someth ing .

As h i s car passed , no ch i ldren appeared .

Ins tead , a br i ck smashedinto the s ide o f h i s car.

He s lammed on the brakes and backed up the car to the spot where the br ick

had been thrown.

The angry dr iver then jumped out o f the car, grabbed the

neares t k id and pushed h im up aga ins t a parked car shout ing ,

“What was that a l l about and Who are you? Jus t whatthe heck are you do ing?

That ' s a new car and that br i ck you threwis go ing to cos t a lo to f money. Why d id

you do i t?”

The young boy was apo loge t i c . “P lease , mis ter. . .p l ease ,

I 'm sorry but I d idn ' tknow what e l se to do .”

He P leaded .

“I threw the br ick because no one e l se

would s top…”

With tears dr ipp ing down h i s face and

o f f h i s ch in , the youthpo inted to a spot

around a parked car.

“I t ' s my bro ther, he sa id . He ro l l ed o f f the curb

and fe l l out o f h i swhee lcha ir and I can ' t

l i f t h im up .”

Now sobbing , the boy asked the s tunned execut ive ,

“would you he lp me ge t h im backinto h i s whee lcha ir?

He' s hurt and too heavyfor me .”

Moved beyond words , the dr iver t r i ed to

swal low the rap id ly swe l l ing lump in h i s

throat .

He hurr ied ly l i f t ed the handicapped boy back in to

the whee lcha ir, then took out a l inen handkerchie f

and dabbed a t the f re shscrapes and cuts .

A quick look to ld h im everyth ing was go ing

to be okay.

“Thank you and may God b les s you ,”

the grate fu l ch i ld to ld the s tranger.

Too shook up for words , the man s imply watched

the boy push h i swhee lcha ir-bound brother

down the s idewalktoward the ir home.

I t was a long , s l ow walk back to h i s Jaguar.

The damage was very not i ceab le , but the dr iver never bo thered to repa ir the dented s ide door.

He kept the dent there to remind h im of th i s

message . “Don' t gothrough l i f e so fa s tthat someone has tothrow a br i ck to ge t

your a t tent ion!”

God whi spers in our sou l s and speaks to our hear t s .

Somet imes when we don' t have t ime to l i s t en , He has to throw a br ick a t us . I t ' s our cho ice to

l i s t en or no t .
