With Christmas coming grandma was out shopping for gifts for her grandchildren. While she was at the toy store going through her list she noticed a small homeless girl outside wistfully looking into the store. Grandma’s heart went out to this little girl. She invited her into the store and asked her to pick out a gift for herself. As they walked out of the store, the little girl held Grandma’s hand and looked into her kind eyes and asked “Are you God?”
Grandma, somewhat embarrassed and somewhat touched said, “No, my dear, I am not God.”
“Then who are you?” continued the little girl. Grandma thought for a moment and said, “I am a child of God.” The little girl, fully satisfied and smiling, said, “I knew there was a connection!”
