LUNCH WITH GOD – STORY

 LUNCH WITH GOD – STORY

A little boy wanted to meet God.

He packed his suitcase with two sets of his dress and some packets of Cakes and he started his journey.

He walked a long and felt tired.

So he sat in a park on the way and opened a packet to take a cake to eat.

Then he noticed an old woman sitting sad with hunger nearby, so he offered her a piece of cake.

She gratefully accepted it with a wide look and smiled at him.

Her smile was so pretty that the boy longed to see it again.

After some time, he offered her another piece of cake.

Again, she accepted it and smiled at him.

The boy was delighted!

They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word.

While it grew dark, the boy was frightened and he got up to leave.

But, before he had gone more than a few steps, he ran back and gave her a hug and she kissed him with her prettiest smile.

When the boy opened the door, his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face.

She asked him,”What did you do today that made you look so happy?”

He replied,”I had lunch with God.”

Before his mother could respond, he added,

“You know what?  She’s got the most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen in my life!”

Meanwhile, the old woman, also radiant with joy, returned to her home.

Her son was stunned by the look of peace on her face and asked,

“Mom, what did you do today that made you so happy?

“She replied,”I ate cakes in the park with God.”

Before her son responded, she added,”You know, he’s much younger than I expected.”

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment,     or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Remember, nobody knows how God will look like.

People come into our lives for a reason, for a season, or for a lifetime.

Accept all of them equally!

AND LET THEM SEE GOD IN YOU!
