Are You God's Wife?
A little boy was standing in front of a shoe store barefooted, peering through the window, and
shivering with cold. A lady approached the boy and said, "My little fellow, why are you looking so earnestly in that window?"
"I was asking Yahveh 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 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 a 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, my little fellow, you feel more comfortable now."
As she turned to go, the astonished lad caught her by the hand, and looking up in her face, with tears in his eyes, said, "Are
you God's Wife?"
