A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a

long trip to where God

lived, so he packed his suitcase with Twinkies and

a six-pack of root beer

and he started his journey.

 

When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old

man. He was sitting in

the park just staring at some pigeons. The boy sat

down next to him and

opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink

from his root beer when

he noticed that the old man looked hungry, so he

offered him a Twinkie.

 

He gratefully accepted it and smiled at him. His

smile was so pleasant

that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered

him a root beer. Again,

he smiled at him. The boy was delighted! They sat

there all afternoon

eating and smiling, but they never said a word.

 

As it grew dark, the boy realized 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. He gave him his

biggest smile ever.

 

When the boy opened the door to his own house a

short time later, his

mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face.

She asked him, "What

did you do today that made you so happy? "He

replied, "I had lunch with

God." But before his mother could respond, he added,

"You know what? He's

got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen!"

 

Meanwhile, the old man, also radiant with joy,

returned to his home. His

son was stunned by the look of peace on his face

and he asked, "Dad, what

did you do today that made you so happy?" He

replied, "I ate Twinkies 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 a touch, a

smile, a kind word, a

listening ear, an honest compliment, or the

smallest act of caring, all of

which have the potential to turn a life around.

People come into our lives

for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Embrace all

equally!

Send this to people who have touched your life in a

special way.

Let them know how important they are. (I did!)

Have lunch with God!

 

And .......Thanks for touching my life.
