This 1947 HARLEY KNUCKLEHEAD rekindled a fire in me. When I was in St. Louis a couple of weeks ago I went to a friends house. His name is Kurt, he is an amazing man, he has an amazing family and look at what he has done. He reminded me that everything can be restored. The lesson I learned by looking at this restored 47 knucklehead would impact me a week later when I was visiting with some friends. Now, if I had seen this motorcycle sitting in an old barn I would have seen a pile of junk. When Kurt saw it, he saw what it could be---not what it was but what it could be. The idea of seeing what "can be" and then accomplishing it, inspires me. Three things come to my mind when I see what Kurt has done. 1. Nehemiah rebuilding the wall. The wall was destroyed and Nehemiah knew what it would take to restore it and then restored it. 2. My dad--seeing his life being restored. Literally watching him rebuild his life. After being crushed by my mom's passing away he has his footing back and is walking again. (I am proud of you dad) 3. The challenge I could face. ---That's all I will say about that, for now--- When I see what Kurt started with and what he has accomplished it brings inspiration and two questions I can't wait to have answered. The question's I am asking today is "What will "it" look like when "it" is restored?" and "Will God use me to restore "it"?"
