A Little Boy’s Lunch with God

One day, a little boy decided he wanted to meet God. He knew it might be a long journey, so he packed some Twinkies and a few cans of root beer in his bag and set off.

After walking just a few blocks, he saw an old woman sitting on a bench in the park. She was quietly watching some pigeons. The boy sat down next to her, opened his bag, and was about to take a sip of root beer. But then he noticed the woman looked a little hungry.

So, he offered her a Twinkie.

She smiled and happily took it. Her smile was so beautiful that the boy wanted to see it again. So, he gave her a can of root beer too.

She smiled again.

They sat together for a long time, sharing Twinkies and root beer. They didn’t say a single word, but they smiled and enjoyed each other’s company.

As the sun began to set, the boy felt tired. He stood up to leave, walked a few steps, then turned back and gave the woman a big hug. She gave him the biggest, warmest smile of all.

When the boy got home, his mother noticed how happy he looked.

“What made you so happy today?” she asked.

“I had lunch with God,” the boy said with a big smile. “And you know what? She has the most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen!”

At the same time, the old woman returned home, glowing with joy.

Her son was surprised to see her so peaceful.

“What made you so happy today, Mom?” he asked.

She smiled and said, “I ate Twinkies in the park with God.” Then she added softly, “You know, he’s much younger than I thought.”

Moral of the Story:

God is everywhere—in kindness, in smiles, in small acts of love. We don’t need to look far to find Him—just share happiness and you’ll feel Him near.

Glenn Cunningham: The Boy Who Never Gave Up

A long time ago, in a small village school, classrooms were heated with a coal stove. One young boy was in charge of coming early every day to start the fire before the others arrived. One morning, when the students and teachers came to school, they found the building in flames. Inside, they discovered the boy—unconscious and badly burned. They rushed him to the hospital. The doctors told his mother that the boy's lower body was badly burned and he might not survive. But the boy was brave. He refused to give up. To the surprise of the doctors, he survived. Later, the doctors told his mother that even though he lived, he would never walk again. His legs were too damaged. But the boy didn’t accept that. He was determined. Even though he couldn’t move his legs and had no feeling in them, he kept believing that one day, he would walk again. His mother helped him every day by massaging his legs. At first, there was no change. But the boy didn’t stop trying. One sunny day, his ...
