As they did their interview, a brand-new Ford truck drove up behind them.
This triggered the Rock to begin to launch into a speech.
“I can’t thank you enough for when I was 15 and you had every right to say ‘I don’t know this kid. I don’t want him to live with me.’ And you took me in, and truly Bruno, it means so much to me that you did that because it actually helped change the course of my life and I love you and I appreciate it and I thank you for buying my first car…and now I have an opportunity to tell you that this is your new car,” the Rock shared with Bruno.
That’s when the rock gave a truck to Bruno as a thank you gift.
Bruno was stunned. He was moved to tears. “I love you so much…before this, without this!” Bruno said when the Rock gave the truck to him. “Nobody’s ever done anything like this for me before.”
“Thank you, Lord, Jesus, for putting you in my life,” Bruno prayed in response.
But when the Rock gave the truck to Bruno, he not only took care of that bill, he got the tags for the truck in Mississippi and had it shipped down to him.
“I was happy just to come see you, that was gift enough!” Bruno said.
In response to the Rock’s Instagram video showing all this, there have been more than more than 3,750,000 views since the time that he posted it about a year ago.
What Bruno did for the Rock was a big ask. But at the same time, taking in the orphans and the widows is something God calls us to do. Whether or not you have the ability to take someone in, how might you stretch yourself to help God use you in a big way?
