The thongs

Occasionally I am asked whether the items in the shoe box are “useful”.  I guess we all have a different opinion of what is useful but there is a boy who came to the OCC distribution in Thuong Trang kindergarten who can assure you that one item in his shoe box was indeed “useful”.

When he opened his box he had a pair of beautiful new thongs.  Imagine our surprise when, of all the children at the distribution, he was the one who had one broken sandal.  He immediately kicked off his sandals and put on the thongs – they fitted perfectly. 

Obviously God knew well and truly beforehand who needed that particular shoe box.
