A GLASS OF MILK

"One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way
through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and he was hungry.
He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his
nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he
asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so brought him a
large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I
owe you?”

“You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother has taught us never to
accept pay for a kindness.” He said….. “Then I thank you from my
heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger
physically, but his faith in God and man was strong also. He had been
ready to give up and quit.

Year’s later that young woman became critically ill. The local doctors
were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in
specialists to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for
the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a
strange light filled his eyes.

Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room.
Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at
once. He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to
save her life. From that day he gave special attention to the case. After
a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business
office to pass the final bill to him for approval.

He looked at it, then wrote something on the edge and the bill was sent to
her room. She feared to open it, for she was sure it would take the rest
of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked, and something caught
her attention on the side of the bill.

She read these words….. “Paid in full with one glass of milk”

(Signed)

Dr. Howard Kelly.

Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed: “Thank
You, God, that Your love has spread abroad through human hearts
and hands.”

 

Acts of kindness can either be forgotten or passed on.  You have TWO choices.
