A LITTLE BOY WANTED TO MEET GOD.......................
HE KNEW IT WAS A LONG TRIP TO WHERE GOD LIVE.... SO HE PACKED HIS SUITCASE WITH BISCUITS AND A FIVE PACKETS OF FRUIT JUICE AND HE STARTED HIS JOURNEY.
WHEN HE HAD GONE ABOUT FEW DISTANCES ,HE MET AN OLD MAN.HE WAS SITTING IN THE PARK JUST STARING AT PIGEONS.THE BOY SAT DOWN NEXT TO HIM AND OPENED HIS SUITCASE.HE WAS ABOUT TO TAKE A DRINK FROM HIS FRUIT JUICE WHEN HE NOTICED THAT THE OLD MAN LOOKED HUNGRY,SO HE OFFERED HIM A BISCUIT.
HE HAPPILY ACCEPTED AND SMILED AT HIM.HIS SMILE WAS SO PLEASANT THAT THE BOY WANTED TO SEE IT AGAIN, SO HE OFFERED HIM A FRUIT JUICE
AGAIN HE SMILED AT HIM...THE BOY WAS SO HAPPY.THEY SAT THERE ALL AFTERNOON EATING AND SMILING,BUT THEY NEVER SAID A WORD.
AS IT GREW DARKER THE BOY REALISED THAT HOW TIRED HE WAS AND HE GOT UP TO LEAVE,BUT BEFORE HE HAD GONE MORE THAN A FEW STEPS,HE TURNED AROUND,RAN BACK TO THE OLD MAN AND GAVE HIM A HUG,THE OLD MAN GAVE HIM HIS BIGGEST SMILE EVER.......
WHEN THE BOY REACHED HIS HOME,HIS MOTHER WAS SURPRISED BY THE LOOK OF JOY ON HIS FACE.SHE ASKED HIM.....
."WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY THAT MAKE YOU SO HAPPY".
HE REPLIED "I HAD LUNCH WITH GOD"BUT BEFORE HIS MOTHER COULD RESPOND, HE ADDED "YOU KNOW THAT?GOD'S GOT THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SMILE I HAVE EVER SEEN...."
MEAN WHILE ,THE OLD MAN ,ALSO WITH A LOOK OF PEACE ON HIS FACE,WENT TO HIS HOUSE AND HIS SON ASKED" DAD ,WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY THAT MADE YOU SO HAPPY?" HE REPLIED," I ATE,BISCUIT IN THE PARK WITH GOD"
"HOWEVER,BEFORE HIS SON RESPONDED,HE ADDED,"YOU KNOW, HE'S MUCH YOUNGER THAN I EXPECTED"
TOO OFTEN WE UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF TOUCH , A SMILE,A KIND WORD,A LISTENING EAR,AND HONEST COMPLIMENT,OR THE SMALLEST ACT OF CARING,ALL OF THESE HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO TURN A LIFE AROUND
PEOPLES COME IN TO OUR LIVES FOR A REASON,A SEASON OR A LIFE TIME,................
