On a very cold winter's day, a little boy, barefooted and shivering with cold, was standing outside a shoes store, staring at the shoes. A rich lady came out of that store and saw the boy. She approached the boy and said, "Kid, why are you looking so earnestly in that window?"
The little boy replied, "I don't have any shoes, I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes."
After listening this, the lady took the boy by the hand and went into the shoe store, and asked the clerk if she can get a bowl of water and towel. Then she removing her gloves and knelt down, cleaned and dried little boy's hands and feet. She bought him a pair of shoes and several pairs of socks. Then she knelt down again, place socks upon the boy's feet, and gave him a pair of shoes to wear. She bought some more pair of socks, gave them to him and patted him on head saying, "Kid, do you feel more comfortable now?"
As she was leaving, the little kid caught her by the hand, and looked up to her with tears in his eyes and replied, "Are you God's wife?"
Never stop doing little things for others. Sometimes those little things occupy the biggest parts of their hearts.
