BOB PEDEN
The story is told of a little girl who was late coming home for supper one evening. When she got home her parents were understandably upset. They questioned her about why she had been so late, after all they had worried about her!
The little girl said, "I stopped to help Marcie, she had a wreck on her bicycle and it was broken."
Her father said, "But you don't know anything about fixing bicycles!" To which the little girl replied, "I know, but I stopped to help her cry."
Now you may or may not know anything about fixing bicycles, or cars, or washing machines, or refrigerators or much of anything else. But when friends have broken things in their lives and are in despair, we can help them with that! The truth is that we are rarely in the position of being able to fix the brokenness of someone's life, but we can help them cry about it.
You and I can encourage them and help them through the hard times in life!
