Blessings From Heaven

United Way is going to pay Justin Scott's ticket and re-instatement fees for his CDL license, so he could be driving again by the middle of next week! To show you the kind of man he is, he was driving through Mississippi some years ago and stopped at a rest stop. He noticed a man parked near him who had in the back of his pick-up truck a massive rack from a buck. Justin went up and struck up a conversation with the man admiring his "trophy". They spoke at length and then Justin, who is black, noticed also in the back of the truck KKK gear. Justin calmly continued the conversation and the other man suggested to Justin that he could give him directions for a different route that would get him to his destination several hours earlier. Justin, knowing who the man was, but based on the connection they made during their conversation and based also on his gut feeling, accepted the man's directions. He indeed arrive at his destination two hours earlier. Connections...and the brotherhood that should always exist between men.
