Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels. [Hebrews 13:2]And that is a good lesson for my boys to have seen. Mummy spoke to a 'bikie dude'... gasp!! shock!! horror!!
But guess what? He is a lovely bikie dude. He is kind and sincere, he loves his snakes, he is humane to the rats, he loves gardening, he loves a chat...
And so it showed my boys that we can never read a book by it's cover, that good people are everywhere, dressed in anything at any time... that we just have to look hard enough and make a bit of an effort ourselves to find the treasures that are out there in this world.
We are all so full of the dangers of life for our kids these days (and rightly so) but in the right circumstances, in safe places, and with responsibility, respect and genuine interest we can find angels among us.
