> roadway, barefooted, peering through the window,
> and shivering with cold.
>
> A lady approached the young boy and said,
> ‘My child , but you’re in such deep thought staring in that window!’
>
> ‘I was asking God to give me a pair of
> shoes,’ was the boy’s reply.
>
> The lady took him by the hand, went into
> the store, and asked the clerk to get half a dozen pairs of socks
> for the boy. She then asked if he could give her a basin of water
> and a towel. He quickly brought them to her.
>
> 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 the towel.
>
> By this time, the clerk had returned with
> the socks. Placing a pair upon the boy’s feet,
> she purchased him a pair of shoes..
>
> She tied up the remaining pairs of socks
> and gave them to him. She patted him on the head and said,
> ‘No doubt, you will be more comfortable now.’
>
> As she turned to go, the astonished kid
> caught her by the hand, and looking up into her face,
> with tears in his eyes, asked her:
> ‘Are you God’s wife?’
