Why did I come today? My Christmas list contained several people that claimed they wanted nothing but I knew their feelings would be hurt I didn’t buy them anything, so     36     buying was anything  but fun.

Hurriedly, I finished shopping and    37   the long checkout lines. In front of me were a boy of about 5 and a younger girl. She carried a(n)   38   pair of  gold shoes. When we finally approached the checkout register, the girl    39   placed the shoes on the counter. She treated them as though they were a   40   .

“That will be $ 6.09,” the cashier said. The boy    41   his pockets. He finally came up with $ 3.12. “I guess we will have to put them   42   ,” he  bravely said. “We will come back some other time, maybe tomorrow.”   43   that statement, a soft sob    44   from the little girl. “But Jesus would have loved these shoes,” she cried.

“Well, we’ll go home and work some    45   . Don’t cry. We’ll surely ruturn,” he said. Quickly I   46    $ 3.00 to the cashier. These children had waited in line for a long time.   47   , after all, it was Christmas. Suddenly a pair of arms came around me and a small voice    48    said, “Thank you, lady.” “What did you mean   49    you said Jesus would like the shoes?” I asked. The boy answered, “Our mommy is sick and going to    50   . Daddy said she might go before Christmas to be with Jesus.” The girl spoke, “   51   Sunday school teacher said the streets in heaven are shiny gold, just like these shoes. Won’t mommy be beautiful    52   on those streets in these shoes?”

My eyes    53    as I looked into her tear-streaked face. “Yes,” I answered, “I am     54    she will.” Silently I thanked God for using these children to  remind me of the true    55   of giving.
