FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Mumsie would like to share this with whosoever is reading mumsie's blog with something that mumsie read not so long ago...

There was this little poor kid, in the heart of winter, looking at a store window, wishing he could have a pair of shoes and socks to withstand the cold and walk the streets of New York.
As the 10-year old stood, barefooted and shivering, a well-dressed lady approached him and said, "My little fellow, why are you looking so earnestly in the window?"
"I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes," was the boy's reply.
The lady took him by the hand and went into the store, and asked the salesman to get a half dozen pairs of socks for the boy. She then asked if he could give her a basin of water and a towel.
She took the little fellow to the back part of the store and, removing her gloves knelt down, washed his little feet, and dried them with a towel.
The salesman returned with the socks . Placing a pair upon the boy's feet, she then bought him a pair of shoes, and tying up the remaining pairs of scoks gave them to him. She patted him on the head and said,"No doubt, my lttle fellow, you feel more comfortable?"
As she turned to go' the boy caught her by the hand , and looking up in her face, with tears
in his eyes, answered the question with these words: "ARE you God's WIFE?"
