“We’re just waiting for the wheelchair to get on.” I’m sure the bus driver didn’t mean anything by it, but it upset William, he is a boy and not a wheelchair!
I tried explaining that the bus driver didn’t know William’s name, but he could have said the boy. Or as William suggested the boy with the red cap! It’s a reminder to be careful with what we say and that a wheelchair doesn’t define someone.
How precious to remind William how God describes him – fearfully and wonderfully made, that God knows him by name and loves him so much that he gave his son for him. That’s an identity to be secure in.
