Raymond took his Ford car and drove out of town. When he was through a few kilometers his car broke down. He got down and opened the bonnet, put his head in and tried to repair the car. But the car wouldn’t budge.
After about half an hour an old man with a walking stick who was going for a walk approached Raymond. He asked, “May I help you, son?” Raymond looked at the old man up and down and thought, “What can this old man do?” He then politely said, “No, thank you, sir, I will be fine.”
Raymond continued to struggle but he couldn’t coax his car to start. After about half an hour the same old man appeared on the scene on his way back. He offered again, “Son, may I help you?” By now Raymond was thoroughly frustrated and thought he should allow the old man. He said, “Ok sir. I don’t think you can do anything. It’s a difficult problem. But if you want you can try.”
The old man put his head inside the bonnet and did something. Then he asked Raymond to try starting the car. The car coughed up and started. Raymond was surprised at the old man’s wisdom. “Thank you, sir” he said, “May I know your good name?” “I am Henry Ford,” replied the old gentle man as he waved good-bye and trudged along.
Raymond had denied the offer of Henry Ford, the Ford Company’s owner and Founder, to help! Sometimes like Raymond we try to solve our problems ourselves. If we turn to God, our Maker, He will fix our problems.
