A neighbor in church

September 23

 

My friend is excited, her neighbor finally attends our church service. She tells me:

 “I ‘m glancing sideways during the service to see how she is reacting.  Her face seems non expressive.. During the message she stares at her feet and I’m confused.” The service ends and I  ask awkwardly,  'Is there anything you liked?”

Her answer surprises me. She smiles saying, “Oh! I saw God’s love before the service even started when your pastor walked in and kissed that boy in the wheelchair by the door.”
