He said, “Mom, can we stop for a moment? I want to give it to him.” So I stopped my car.Matt handed the boy the glove and said, “Here, God wanted me to give this to you.”The boy was so happy to get it! His mom stood up and gave Matt a big hug. Her eyes were full of tears (眼泪). She looked at us and said, “This was the best gift he could get.
