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? God’s got the most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen!”
Meanwhile, the elderly 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.
