     It was a cool, rainy day and it was the day before Thanksgiving-the first one my three children and I would
be spending without their father, who passed away several months ago. Now the two older children were sick
with the flu. I hurried around, trying to care for each child:thermometers, medicine, juice, bread. I found the
children had run out of fruits. But what almost broke me down was that I only had $2.50 left-and this should
last until the end of the month.
     That's when I heard the phone ring. It was the secretary from our former church,and she told me that they
had been thinking about us and had something to give us. I called at the church on my way to the market just
before lunch. The church secretary met me at the door and handed me two currency notes (流通券), each
worth $20. I was so moved that I cried.
     Then I drove on to a store near our home for something needed for the children. The things I picked up cost
me a little over $14.00, and I handed the cashier (收银员) one note. She took it and looked at it for a long time.
I thought something might be wrong and told her that I was a single parent and how I got it. With tears in her
eyes, the cashier said that morning she had prayed (祈祷) to help someone, and I gave her the chance. She
added a turkey to my items (货物), took out two $20 bills and paid for my items. Once more I was moved to
tears.
     As I walked to my car, I was still moved by the stranger's love and realized that God loves my family. He
shows us his love through others' hands.
