A boy was standing, barefoot, in front of a shoe store shivering with cold. 


A lady came up and said: "My little friend, what are you looking with such interest in that window?"


He replied, "I'm asking God to give me a pair of shoes."


The lady took him by the hand and led him into the store and asked a clerk for half a dozen pairs of socks for the child and a pair of shoes. She asked if she could lend her a tub of water and a towel and led the boy to the back of the store. She lovingly began to wash the child's feet and dried them, then put on his socks and shoes. She patted the boy on the head and said: "There is no doubt little friend that you feel more comfortable now!".


As she turned to leave, the boy, very happy, caught up with her and took her by the hand, looking at her with tears in his eyes, he asked: "Are you the wife of God?


The Lady replied: "No, I'm just a grateful woman with what he has given me,".❤️
