Hurriedly, I finished shopping and   24  the long checkout lines. In front of me were a boy of about five and a younger girl. She carried a beautiful pair of    25  slippers. When we finally  _ 26  the checkout register, the girl   27  placed the shoes on the counter. She treated them as though they were a    28  .

“That will be $ 6.09,” the cashier said. The boy    29  his pockets. He finally came up with $ 3.12. “I guess we will have to put them back,” he bravely said. “We will come back some other time, maybe tomorrow.” With that statement, a soft  30  broke from the little girl. “But    31   would have loved these shoes,” she cried.

“Well, we’ll go home and work some more. Don’t cry. We’ll surely   32  ,” he said. Quickly I handed $ 3.00 to the cashier. These children had waited in line for a long time.

Daddy said she might go before Christmas to be with Jesus.” The girl spoke, “My Sunday school teacher said the streets in heaven are shiny gold, just like these shoes. Won’t mommy be 37  walking on those streets in these shoes?”

My eyes   38  as I looked into her tear-stained face. “Yes,” I answered, “I am   39   she will.” Silently I thanked God for using these children to   40  me of the true spirit of giving I once was familiar with.
