The Christmas Card


--by bkissed, posted Jan 7, 2007
Across the street from my parents live a couple -- Ken and Marsha -- who rarely come out of the house and the husband Ken will complain about everything, like the lights from the outside porches.

For the past 3  Christmas'  I have send them a card on behalf of my mom and dad.  This year I just happend to put in God Bless you! 

Well, my Mom called and said  yesterday  Marsha  came over  with a card and gifts for them.  She was also questioning the God Bless you, asking if we meant it or if it was like saying a " I love you" without meaning it.  My mom told Marsha that yes it was meant and couldn't live without God being a part of our daily lives. 

Marsha was asking all kinds of questions about God.  She and her husband are both very educated with PHD's and are ill.  They are athiests, but in this time of need, she was pouring her hout to a devout person like my mom.  My Mom said she couldn't belive she spent 15 minutes talking about God.  At the end Marsha asked my mom to keep her and her husband in her prayers. 

I sowed the seed and mom was watered it.  How wonderful!
