A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God
lived, so he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato chips and a six-pack
of root beer and started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old man. He was sitting in
the park, just staring at some pigeons. The boy sat down next to him and
opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink from his root beer when he
noticed that the old man looked hungry, so he offered him some chips. He
gratefully accepted it and smiled at him.
His smile was so pretty that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered
him a root beer. Again, he smiled at him. The boy was delighted!
They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a
word.
As twilight approached, the boy realized how tired he was and he got up to
leave; but before he had gone more than a few steps, he turned around, ran
back to the old man, and gave him a hug. He gave him his biggest smile
ever..
When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time later, his
mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him, "What did
you do today that made you so happy?"
He replied, "I had lunch with God." But before his mother could respond,
he added, "You know what? He's got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen!"
Meanwhile, the old man, also radiant with joy, returned to his home. His
son was stunned by the look of peace on his face and he asked, "dad, what
did you do today that made you so happy?"
He replied "I ate potato chips in the park with God." However, before his
son responded, he added, "You know, he's much younger than I expected."
