The two young ladies that I board with during the week each have a bicyle. One is worth $700cdn the other $400 cdn. I was looking at these 2 beautiful bicycles in the garage and thinking, man it would be nice if I owned A bicycle. Maybe I could ride to work, if it's not too far. A few weeks later I was walking a few kilometers from home and found a black 12 speed Super Cycle bicycle. It was just thrown on the ground. I asked if I should report this to the police, and I was told, no, it's junk, and someone just threw it away. Hey! One man's junk is another man's gold It is old and extremely rusted, but the brakes and gears work, the handlebar is bent, but it works.
Two days later, the evening before garbage pick-up, Julie asks me, did you throw your bicyle in the garbage?" "No I didn't."
"Well, you bicycle is in the garbage."
"No, it's not" .
"If your bicycle is in the garbage, you ow me 20 bucks".
"Ok I'll look"
I go and take a look at the bicyle in OUR garbage and it's a black bicycle. I was thinking to myself, "that's not funny, having fun at another's expense". So I open the garage door, to put the bicycle back in the garage, and Huh!! My bicycle is still in the garage, then what's that bicycle in the garbage? I took a better look and it was a Black, 12 speed, Super Cycle bicycle, identical to the one I found 2 days earlier. How can that be? IMO this cannot be a coincidence. I have never found a bicyle in my life, and now I found 2 identical bicyles. I found out that my work is 11.5km from where I board - it is possible to cycle that distance (takes me about 40 - 55 minutes). IMO this is a gift from the creator of the universe, but why?
1) I wanted one, and so he fullfilled the desire of my heart.
2) It takes away my doubts that God is involved in our lives.
3) To prove to me that he is able.
Your probably thinking, what does this have to do with arranger keyboards.
4) Every time I ride my bicycle to and from work, I save $4.00 to go against a new PSR1500 or PSR3000.

P.S. This is a true story.

Heck, you should start praying for that PSR3000! Why not cut out that middle step?

Interesting -- two threads in quick succession about God and miracles. Coincidence?

Good advice, and I'll do that (although I didn't pray for a bicycle, it was just a thought I had). Ok. I'm thinking now... I want one.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work that way. I use my keyboard predominantly for praise and worship, and I'll be using the PSR3000 for the same. The bicyle is a transportation device only, a means to an end. So why not give me a PSR3K and forgo the bicycle? The Lord works in mysterious ways.

Great story! So how are you going to use those two bicycles? I guess you could replace the bent handlebar of the one with the other!

Hé Starkeeper, can you pray for a Tyros instead?
Then If you find one in the garbage the second time, you can send it to me - I'll pay for shipping!!

You guys are hilarious. I suggested that if we find another bicycle,put a sticky memo on it with the word Wednesday. That would be my Wednesday bicycle.

Acutualy, one had a really badly rusted chain, so I exchanged that, and placed it on the bicycle with the better tires and straight handlebar.
